With the Crane Wife approaching us very quickly, I think it is important to look back and see what they have done before this. I'm going to choose one of my favorite songs from each album or EP. I'm also including a track from Tarkio, which is Colin Meloy's band before he was in the Decemberists. I hope you all go out and buy the Crane Wife and enjoy it. If you like any of the other songs, buy the album! You'll probably like it, too.
Tarkio - Keeping Me Awake
The Decemberists - Oceanside
The Decemberists - Grace Cathedral Hill
The Decemberists - The Soldiering Life
The Decemberists - Everything I Try To Do, Nothing Seems To Turn Out Right
I'm not going to post one for this, because it needs to be listened to as a whole (although I really like IV)
The Decemberists - On The Busmall
The Decemberists - Bridges and Balloons (Joanna Newsom Cover)
The Decemberists - Yankee Bayonet (I Will Be Home Then)Website
iTunes
