Decemberists

Ever thought becoming a sailor on an old sail boat? Ever think that hey it would be cool to have lived Victorian era? Do you like your instrumentals deep and melodic? Or do you like you lyrics metaphorical and sometimes a bit out there? If you answered yes to any of these questions then you are as weird as I am and do I have a band for you. The Decemberists formed in 2000 and released it first self released album 5 Songs in 2001. Since then they have released 4 other albums all of them as good and as new as the last. The Decemberists lead singer Colin Meloy has one of the best voice I have heard and the instruments that band uses is very diverse ranging from the accordion to a string bass. Even if you answered no to all the questions in the beginning they are still worth your time to check out.
