As anticipation continues to build for Sleep Well Beast, The National has shared “Guilty Party.” The forthcoming album will be the band’s follow-up to 2013’s Trouble Will Find Me.

Like to their lead single “The System Only Dreams In Total Darkness,” Casey Reas was called once again by the veteran American indie rockers to put together an enigmatic video for their newest release. However, the tone of “Guilty Party” is much more somber than its predecessor, and utilizes a much slower tempo throughout.

Enjoy “Guilty Party” by the National above. Pre-order Sleep Well Beast on iTunes before its September 8 release date.

The band will also be embarking on a tour across Europe and North America promoting the album. Dates and ticketing information can be viewed here.
