DECEMBERISTS BACK AT IT



The Decemberists recently sat down for an interview with Rolling Stone to discuss their forthcoming album, Hazards of Love. The famous literary band's promising 16 or so segments in a continuous, hour-long narrative.
The story covers a woman named Margaret who is ravaged by a shape-shifting animal; her lover, William, who is desperate for the two of them to be reunited; a forest queen; and a villainous rake. Sounds like appropriate fodder for Meloy and company. The band's last outing was The Crane Wife in 2006. I think my all time favorite Decemberist tune is "Shiny", " Here I Dreamt I was an Architecht" and "Leslie Anne Levine". Bring on the new CD!
