they sound like pirates man. or wizened fishermen.
rive gauche:
I think Colin Meloy enunciates too clearly to sound like a pirate.

Yes but "Shake the Sheets" is a better album, imo.

He also has explicitly rejected the pirate label. The Decemberists make nice songs but the special thing about them is that they all tell fairly intricate stories. I think its more the narrative format that the impressive part of their music.
