This has been my favorite band for about a year and a half now. Very unique band. They have an old time feel. Lyrics and musical composition that smacks of the civil war days. Quite a bit of their songs are war related...they speak of old time navy life, ect. Really great stuff IMO. Something that must be heard rather than explained.

I had the pleasure of seeing them 2 nights in a row this weekend in Chicago at Schuba's bar.

The CD i'd reccomend first would be:

Decemberists - Castaways & Cutouts

then

Decemberists - Her Majesty....

then

Decemberists - Tain EP

then

Decemberists - 5 Songs EP


If I have some time this week i'll throw Castaways & Cutouts on my server for you folks to download. :)

This is stuff I think anyone from a young age to an older adult can enjoy.
