Album Rating: 4.5
thing is everything great this band has done has something behind it, something bold whether narrative, arrangement, genre pulled from or otherwise...this is just a well performed abeit stale performance by the band...
That said it may well be a genius move, if the next album is as ambitious as THOL

I don't understand why some people are afraid of indulgent, excessive Decemberists

I'm not afraid of excessive, indulgent anything. They just didn't do it very well.

That style suits them a lot better than this.

LOL
no
i mean it's cool disliking this album but HoL wasn't even decemberists
|
| |
So? It was all the better for it. But even still, my reasons for disliking this album aren't that it's not 'ambitious' enough, I just find it to be boring and dull. Still, I can at least safely say that there are some great ideas here.

no but you can't say the style on hol suits them better than the style here since the style here is basically just what people would deem 'real' decemberists
|

so the non-real decemberists style suits them better what is the problem

I can't follow this discussion anymore. The whole point of my review is to state that I like this album BECAUSE of Hazards of Love, and while I didn't enjoy HoL that much, it is entirely necessary for me to enjoy this. Which sounds really weird, I know, but it comes down to intertextuality kinda thing, where this just feels so clean and approachable compared to some of their other stuff. Is it profound? No. Is it going to become one of my favourites ever? Probably not. But dammit I like the songs.
