		<description><![CDATA[Apropos nothing, is &#8216;Alternative Rock&#8217; far too watered down and worn out to be an effective way of describing any particular music style? I mean, if you&#8217;re talking about something like &#8216;Speed Metal,&#8217; images of long hair, tight costumes, and lengthy guitar solos brimming with unearthly arpeggio and glissando fill your head.

And, unfortunately, like so many great 80&#8242;s synth-rock groups, it&#8217;s pretty much overshadowed their whole career. They&#8217;ve released a total of 8 albums all together, (the latest and final being No Hats Beyond this Point, released in 2003) and all of [...]]]></description>

The Decemberists have known for writing amazingly good songs, all of which usually tell a story of some sort. With the realease of The Craine Wife, we saw them move closer to a concept album.

It was good, and humorous, but more in a novelty band kind of way. Not so much in a Good Album, way.
