Matt Berninger - Get Sunk

Get Sunk finds Matt Berninger—frontman of The National—diving deeper into his signature moody terrain, but with a sharper, more intimate edge. This solo outing is his boldest yet, balancing emotional wreckage with wry wit and lush instrumentation.

Tracks like “My Mistake” and “Fear of Heights” explore vulnerability with poetic depth, while “Captain” sways between self-destruction and salvation. Berninger’s baritone remains the anchor, drenched in melancholy but never adrift.

Whether you're in it for the slow burn or the emotional free fall, Get Sunk is an immersive listen that rewards introspection. A must-have for fans of eloquent sadness wrapped in gorgeous soundscapes—yes, it hurts, but in the best way.
