jackl by Jack Lowrey March 9th, 2007

Scrawny-looking pop-rock quintet The National have announced the release of their fourth studio album.

Entitled Boxer, the release hits shelves on May 21st. It will be their second full-length released through ace label Beggars Banquet. Boxer’s track list looks something like this:

'Fake Empire' 'Mistaken For Strangers' 'Brainy' 'Squalor Victoria' 'Green Gloves' 'Slow Show' 'Apartment Story' 'Start A War' 'Guest Room' 'Racing Like A Pro' 'Ada' 'Gospel'

Ever the keen bunch, The National will be heading out on a jaunt through Europe and America in support of the release. The European leg of the tour stops at:

May
22 London Astoria
23 Paris La Maroquinerie
25 Berlin Magnet

Naturally, a single will precede the release of the album. 'Mistaken For Strangers' will be released on CD, download, and vinyl on April 30th.
