Anyone listened to this new album yet? It’s streaming as of today. I thought the pre-release songs were excellent. I would have listened to the album by now, but I’m hoping to get the CD for Father’s Day.

Here's one of the singles - great song!
The song has just the right amount of humor, IMO. And it's super-catchy.
"Burial Ground" is a top notch Decemberists song. Easily among the best of them.

I hadn’t realised it was out already, I’ll be listening soon. I have enjoyed the pre-release tracks, they’ve been missing from my listening for a little too long.
I love the trumpet solo or whatever it is in Burial Ground! So good.
I still have net heard it however I picked up the double vinyl today in HMV, a very nice package, and I’ll spend some quality time with it in this week ahead.
