Ranked #7 in Rolling Stone's '50 Best Albums Of 2011' -- "Singer-songwriter Colin Meloy packs his storytelling eccentricities into pop-song packages of verse, hook and country-Smiths jangle...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "This is the Decembrists' most immediate and outgoing album....'Dear Avery' is another sublime essay in memory, separation and regret...", "The band's latest set is more succinctly rewarding than anything it has done in years." -- Grade: A-, "Lead singer Colin Meloy's irrepressible baritone in all its full-throated glory stands in stark contrast to the unplugged ensemble's dulcet tones.", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "'January Hymn' and 'June Hymn' flutter by like the gentle campfire ballads they evoke...", Ranked #26 in Uncut's '50 Best Albums of 2011'- "A Clutch of Warm, Literate Country-Rock Songs.", "Harking back to the relative simplicity of PICARESQUE, this latest offering is a finessed folk-rock record to bring a little taste of long summer evening drives...", "Ten crisp roots-rock tunes in a mere 40 minutes....The singer appears most deeply engaged with THE KING IS DEAD's more direct, plainspoken moments...", "THE KING OF DEAD focuses on what made the Decembrists famous in the first place: Colin Meloy's lyrical oddities and the group's pastoral sound.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "The whole album is warm to the touch....With straightforward songs, transparent emotions, a little gift both to their fans and themselves."
Additional Information
Their sixth full-length studio outing finds the Decemberists exploring their American homeland, a region that has thus far eluded them.

The price charged was competitive but not greedy and the postage the cost you would expect. They answered any enquiries quickly and full of the right information. I am so very, very pleased with this purchase and the Brrrrrilliant Seller. Thank you so very, very much. Keep doing what you are doing. Fantastic!

    Original despatch of the book from Australia was delayed and I had to chase it up when it didn't arrive. The seller apologised and offered a refund but I opted to wait. The missing book was then sturdily packed, speedily despatched, and arrived quickly and in pristine condition so I am happy I waited. Though they got off to a bad start, the seller redeemed themselves and I would buy from them again.

    Communication Prior to Buying was Responsive and Quick. However, having been Reassured that My Order would be Delivered by 'Local Postal Service', it Arrived by Private Courier. The Delivery itself took 25 Days to Arrive. Although it was Delivered before the Estimated Delivery Date, Locally Based Orders Shouldn't have to Take So Long to be Delivered. The New Item Arrived in Excellent Condition as Described. A Satisfying Buy at a Great Value Price but CS Advice Should've been More Reliable.

  • Great songs with more than a nod in the direction of REM.

    Interesting lyrics and strong melodies. Guest appearances by Peter Buck, Gillian Welch and others make for a rich and varied sound shot through with an Americana vibe. They make no secret of the REM influence which is particularly noticeable on Down By The Water (when I first heard that track on the radio I thought it WAS REM), but that's no bad thing. I have played this many times since it arrived last week.

  • Not their best

    Not their best but it still contains a few good tracks. Plus, Peter Buck’s on it. Bonus.
