Decemberists : The Crane's Wife
Genre: Alternative Rock	Dates: 2006

There is a 90% chance that the local Starbucks has played “O, Valencia” at least once today.  The Crane Wife is another look into that Northwest indie scene that’s about exaggerated high-pitch vocals (think Ben Gibbard) and alternative pop/folk. (Review by Jon Hadusek) (Editor’s review/note: This is McSweeney’s “rock.” That ain’t a compliment, but to each his or her own.)
