Decists, The
I want to like this band, but they annoy the shit out of me. Actually, let me rephrase that: They bore the shit out of me. They make me want to jab pencils into my eyeballs with their whiney carnival, Pacific Northwest bourgeois bohemian b.s.! But that’s just me. OK, I admit I actually spent some real time listening to their current release The Crane Wife, and actually enjoyed the Jethro Tull moments, the castaway journey and even lead singer’s Colin Meloy’s nasally voice, but for non-fans this DVD is basically one big Xanax. It features a live performance of the group at the Roseland Theater in Portland, OR (and by live I mean totally lifeless and uninspired). The Paris Before the War documentary is an embarrassment to my favorite film genre. And the music videos included just make me want to Zzzzz.
