Review

Rolling Stone (p.86) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "True to form, THE HAZARDS OF LOVE brings the glorious excess: There's strummy British folk rock and heavy-metal thunder, orchestral strings and a children's choir."
Spin (p.75) - "Meloy can write the hell out of melody, and he's got a flair for making what might seem heady and ridiculous on paper into something that sounds relatable and touching."
Alternative Press (p.120) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "For the band's fifth studio album, THE HAZARDS OF LOVE, Colin Meloy & Co. have assembled a 21st-century concept album with roots in 16th-century imagery and '70s stoner rock."
Q (Magazine) (p.104) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "THE HAZARDS OF LOVE is that most archaic of things -- the fully formed album, and a concept album at that....Its musical palette is a vivid and evocative one, shaded by accordion, harpsichord and pedal steel."
Clash (magazine) (p.110) - "The Decembrists show off their impressive array of talents both vocally and instrumentally, with the band constantly switching from haunting acoustic folk to powerful blues and metal riffs."

Product note

Portland, Oregon's freewheeling indie-pop starlets The Decemberists continue their journey towards prog-revivalism with this epic fifth album. Conceptually a narrative musical piece, a rich tapestry of characters, dramatic events and themes is woven throughout this ambitious project. Though the scope is more enlarged than with previous records, singer/songwriter Colin Meloy's folky songs and labyrinthine, literate vocals remain at the forefront. The dramatic framework The Decemberists' ambition provides makes 'The Hazards Of Love' a quirky and rewarding release from this enduring band.
