VINYL FORMAT. The Decemberists have recorded a tidy heap of material which they're releasing as 12" vinyl singles over the course of three Autumnal months. This 'singles series' is aptly titled Always the Bridesmaid and will prominently feature songs that the Decemberists really loved but presciently felt they would not fit on the band's forthcoming LP. The third and final volume includes "Record Year for Rainfall," b/w "Raincoat Song." Heavy 180 gram audiophile quality vinyl with deluxe packaging. Custom jackets cradle each full color sleeve, seen through a die-cut window.
