Album Review of "As it Ever Was, So it Will Be Again" by The Decemberists (7/10)

YABB Records

Producer: Tucker Martine

If you love history, and if you love indie-rock at its most pleasant, The Decemberists are the band for you. We’ve enjoed the band going all the way back to 2000, when the Portlanders led a successful mutiny of the USS Curmudgeon and took the helm.

With As It Ever Was, So It Will Be Again, frontman Colin Meloy and his merry pranksters prove that all is not lost. The Decemberists’ lasting legacy will be how a cadre of shiny, happy people held hands with each other during this voyage we call “life.”
