Pitchfork: The National Announce Massive Fall Tour

Sweet scientists the National have unveiled a real knockout of a North American fall tour, which will find the Best New Music-makers showered and blue-blazered all the way from here to Carrboro. But not before they wrap up their current European tour, and not after they embark on yet another European tour as the weather turns cold. Norway in December? Brrrrrr.

Hey, the National go international! Somebody probably already made that joke.
