The Decemberists - Her Majesty


Album: Her Majesty
Year: 2003

The Decemberists are an indie rock outfit, and i have to say that they are really good, despite the fact that the music is kind of hard to listen too, but i think that they are very creative and different. this album feels very theatrical and dramatic with ALOT of memorable songs, as in they stick in your head and you keep recalling them from time to time, if you feel like downloading this, id recommend you first listening to "billy liar", "i was meant for the stage" and the unbelievably amazing indie love song "red right ankle". these songs will familiarize you with the rest of the album, which is a great one all in all.

Tracklist:
1. Shanty for the Arethusa
2. Billy Liar
3. Los Angeles, I'm Yours
4. The Gymnast, High Above the Ground
5. The Bachelor and the Bride
6. Song for Myla Goldberg
7. The Soldiering Life
8. Red Right Ankle
9. The Chimbley Sweep
10. I Was Meant for the Stage
