Picaresque

VINYL FORMAT. Vinyl format comes as a double LP with a 20-page insert packed with photos and lyrics. Also included are 6 EXTRA TRACKS! In the past two years, The Decemberists have gone from unknowns outside their native Portland to success via critical praise, impressive sales, and packed houses. Produced by Chris Walla (Death Cab For Cutie) in a Portland church that was also being used as a daycare center, with Picaresque The Decemberists have recorded their fullest sounding release yet, all ambitions fulfilled. The Quintet blazes through more instrumental variations than can be listed here, for a heightened urgency and depth to the sharply written lyrical scenarios.
