The Hazards of Love

Although The Decemberists are not really my usual kind of thing, I've been listening to and following them for about 5 years now. As a friend put it to me recently, they don't seem capable of making a bad album, just some that are a little better than others. Maybe a folk band at their core, they manage to cover a lot of ground between very catchy pop, prog, and even folk-metal (The Tain EP, which is how I initially discovered them).

Here's a nice live recording of "The Hazards of Love 2 (Wager All)" from their 2009 album The Hazards of Love:
