I gotta say, I don't see it. However, I saw that album performed live, so I have a mild bias. I personally feel it is incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prog-rock Decemberists (Hazards, The Tain) are extremely my jam, but I fear they won’t ever go back to that because it seems like most fans’ least favorite.

If I could relive that show where they played all of Hazards. That would be heaven. Just a constant repeat. My whole life ahead of me...

swazzyswess Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 (edited) Can't decide if it's playfully self-referential or a sign they've truly jumped the shark that the Hamilton song features the second use of the phrase "gay Paris" in their discography. Probably a little of both, but I do know my interest in them died with the Hazards of Love. Edited January 17, 2018 by swazzyswess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackshidt Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Stereogum had this page up early today. It has been removed, but you can find it through Google's cache. It said: Decemberists Hear The First Single From New Decemberists Album Inspired By New Order And Roxy Music Peter Helman @_peterhelman | 3:43 am EMAIL SHARE TWEET PIN IT REDDIT For their new album, the Decemberists are looking beyond bookish folk-rock. I’ll Be Your Girl, their first LP since 2015’s What A Terrible World, What A Beautiful World, finds the indie veterans working with indie superproducer John Congleton for the first time, and he helped them chase a whole different sound. “We were talking about music and our references,” Meloy says in a press release. “It kept coming back to Roxy Music and early glam, and we dove in with that in mind. The Decemberists are a record-collectors’ band, we’re all fans and scholars of music, so there a lot of touch points that we all get, but they don’t always come through. So we were trying to embrace that Bryan Ferry aspect, that kind of set the tone.” Lead single “Severed” was originally written as a punk song, but “wasn’t really working,” Meloy explains. “Jenny set this arpeggio throughout it, and it became like an early New Order song. And I had forgotten that when we made the demo, I also started a file to turn it into more of a Depeche Mode song — I actually wanted it to be a synth song all along.” Listen below. embed tk I’ll Be Your Girl tracklist: 01 “Once In My Life” 02 “Cutting Stone” 03 “Severed” 04 “Starwatcher” 05 “Tripping Along” 06 “Your Ghost” 07 “Everything Is Awful” 08 “Sucker’s Prayer” 09 “We All Die Young” 10 “Rusalka, Rusalka / The Wild Rushes” 11 “I’ll Be Your Girl” Tour dates: 03/22 Fox Theater @ Pomona, CA 03/23 Arlington Theatre @ Santa Barbara, CA 03/24 Innings Festival @ Tempe, AZ 04/06 Palace Theatre @ St. Paul, MN 04/08Riverside Theater @ Milwaukee, WI 04/10 Chicago Theatre @ Chicago, IL 04/13-14 Ryman Auditorium @ Nashville, TN 04/15 Coca-Cola Roxy Theatre @ Atlanta, GA 04/16 North Charleston Performing Arts Center @ Charleston, SC 04/18 Charlotte Metro Credit Union Amphitheatre @ Charlotte, NC 04/19 Durham Performing Arts Center @ Durham, NC 04/20 The National @ Richmond, VA 04/21 The Anthem @ Washington, DC 04/23 Smith Opera House @ Geneva, NY 04/24 Agora Theatre @ Cleveland, OH 04/25 Peabody Opera House @ St. Louis, MO 05/22 Red Rocks Amphitheatre @ Morrison, CO + 05/23 Uptown Theater @ Kansas City, MO 05/25 Hill Auditorium @ Ann Arbor, MI 05/26 Artpark @ Lewiston, NY 05/27 Boston Calling Festival @ Boston, MA 05/28 MTELUS @ Montreal, QC 05/30 Sony Centre for the Performing Arts @ Toronto, ON 05/31 Benedum Center @ Pittsburgh, PA 06/02 Murat Theatre at Old National Centre @ Indianapolis, IN 06/05 Iroquois Amphitheater @ Louisville, KY 06/07 Mann Center for the Performing Arts @ Philadelphia, PA ^ 06/08 College Street Music Hall @ New Haven, CT ^ 06/09 The Green at Shelburne Museum @ Shelburne, VT ^ 06/10 State Theatre @ Portland, ME ^ 06/13 BRIC Celebrate Brooklyn!

niblips Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 (edited) I'm excited for this release. I love all the albums but The Crane Wife is #1 for me and #2 is Hazards. I can't seem to locate the new single on something i don't have to sign up for like spotify or itunes. Can someone post a link if they find it?
