The Decemberists Prepare To Release Fifth Album
Superfans of The Decemberists are probably pissing themselves. Repeatedly. And rightfully so. The band has all kinds of news to discuss this week.
Firstly, tickets to the A Short Fazed Hovel Tour will go on sale to the public on Friday, February 13th. Yep. Friday the 13th. Valentine’s Eve. The tour is set to be split into two acts. In the first act, the band will perform the tracks from their newest album, The Hazards Of Love, in consecutive order, from beginning to end. The second half of their live show will consist of some vintage material from the band’s previous albums.
Though more dates will be announced in due time, a handful of national dates have been released for the A Short Fazed Hovel Tour.
