The Decemberists: Always The Bridesmaid Vol. 1 (2008)


New Wax


I love it when good news seemingly comes out of nowhere, like new material from The Decemberists. The band is releasing the first installation of a three-volume single series entitled Always The Bridesmaid: A Singles Series on October 14th via 12" vinyl and digitally. The first edition kicks off with "Valerie Plame," an upbeat horn-laden ditty about the former CIA operative sung from the point-of-view of one of her inside contacts. "O New England" serves as a worthy b-side. Volume II will consist of two songs entitled "Days Of Elaine" and "Sticking With You" and is due for release on 11/4 while Volume III contains two tracks entitled "Record Year" and "Raincoat Song" and will be available on 12/2.  You can preorder the singles on the band's website on exclusive limited edition colored vinyl. -- Capt. Obvious
