The new Decemberists album, The Crane Wife, is set to release in October. It will be the their first release on a major label, and I've already heard from several fans of the band that they think the album will be a disappointment.
Do people fear label tampering? Do people think that creativity will be stifled? Do people automatically assume that the band's sound will be changed? Is a change in sound always a bad thing? What if The Crane Wife had been released on their old label -- would it still be meet with the same distaste?
I'm looking forward to it, although I agree that it will be tough to top Her Majesty and Picaresque.
