And, while being recognizably related to its sibling predecessor, it is an altogether different beast. Present and accounted for are the Victorian literary tropes, the rakish mariners, and the Dickensian downtrodden that slouched their way across the lazer imprinted surface of \"Castaways and Cutouts\"; in \"Her Majesty the Decemberists,\" a new cast of characters is introduced as well, giving further depth to the richly bizarre songcraft of the band's bespectacled leading player, Colin Meloy: an aristocratic Jewess, slumming it blindfolded among the exotic avenues of a Chinese bazaar, the coifed and coked-up bon vivants of greater Los Angeles, the writer Myla Goldberg, and a pair of affectionate soldiers, celebrating their comradery among the mortar blasts and trench mud of World War I Belgium. Musically, the band travels over new territory as well, mining deeper into their Beatlepop influences to create a record that is as lush as it is intricate. Strings soar, glockenspiels chime, and analog synths buzz over what the band considers its finest overture into pop song arrangement, all the while keeping intact the folk-pop instrumentation that has defined the sound of the band since its inception.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTrack Listing:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.

Entering the studio in May 2013, The Decemberists reversed that approach. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTypically we book four or five weeks in the studio and bang out the whole record, explains singer Colin Meloy. This time, we started by just booking three days, and didnt know what we would record. There was no direction or focus; we wanted to just see what would come out. We recorded Lake Song on the first day, live, and then two more songs in those three days. And the spirit of that session informed everything that came after. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom the soaring, bittersweet first single Make You Better, to the ruminating ballad Lake Song, and anthemic closer A Beginning Song, What a Terrible World, What a Beautiful World establishes itself as The Decemberists most varied and dynamic work to date, both musically and emotionally.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTrack Listing:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.

With production help from Chris Walla of Death Cab for Cutie, the Decemberists recorded the EP over the course of four days in Walla's studio in Seattle, Washington. The album cover was designed by the Portland artist Carson Ellis. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Tain's cornerstone is a cycle of Celtic mythology under the same name and is basically a one epic song divided into five parts. A bit of a rock opera, The Tain has been a live favorite among their fans.
