The National - Boxer

№56 - August 2017

Pada July 20, 2017

No one talks enough about what a perfect title Boxer is for this album: a sport where you spar one opponent, the mirror of your own actions. A sport where half the battle is fighting yourself, and demands that you scrupulously analyze every move. A sport trading on the hope that you will always stay vigilant against failure, that no one will ever land the blow that knocks you into an elegant fall back into an unmagnificent life.


What’s included in this VMP Exclusive:

  • 10th Anniversary Reissue
  • Special Edition Grey Vinyl

Learn more about "Boxer"


Boxer is an album about proximity: to happiness, to success, to good relationships, to lives that live up to the lives we imagined for ourselves. It’s all inseparable from the band’s own slow ascendance to fame, and the pressure they applied to themselves in bringing Boxer to life.
