The Decemberists - Her Majesty, The Decemberists

The follow-up to CASTAWAYS AND CUTOUTS has the band traveling over new territory, mining deeper into their Beatle pop influences to create a record as lush as it is intricate. Strings soar, glockenspiel chime, and analog synths buzz over what the band considers it's finest overture into pop song arrangement, all the while keeping intact the folk-pop instrumentation that has defined their sound since their inception.
