A taste of Coachella: The National

One of the most buzzed about bands playing Coachella this year is Brooklyn’s the National.

Seriously, everyone has been asking me about them. Weird, huh? I am really liking the music, but I’m a bit worried that their stage presence might be like that of Interpol’s–very stoic and not dynamic. I mean, Interpol has sounded good when I’ve seen them live, but they don’t really move around much or banter with the audience, in my experience.

Has anyone seen the National play live and can help clue me in?

Anyway, here is the National performing “Fake Empire.”
