Makes me want to have long, epic dreams
The Decemberists sing the kind of songs that make me want to have long, epic dreams about pirates and treasure hunts and quests and bandits and peasant girls and friendly thieves and saucy kitchen lads and saucier bar wenches. They make me feel hopeful and happy and full of love for everything and everyone around me.

Catch the ear
From the dreams of being ocean side on "5 Songs" to the tale of a mariner's quest for revenge on "Picaresque," The Decemberists have woven songs and stories that catch the ear and the imagination. Through their literary style and whimsical use of non-traditional instruments from the accordion and melodica to bottles and tin toys, The Decemberists' songs grab you and don't let go. This is a band that is somehow even better live; their stage presence, performance, and ability to make you feel as if you're sitting in on a private session are extradordinary.
