The Decemberists - Ill Be Your Girl

I’ll Be Your Girl is the eighth studio album by The Decemberists, released in 2018 by Capitol and Rough Trade, here in a special coloured vinyl edition.

Produced by John Congleton, the album marks a stylistic shift for the band, introducing synthesizers and new wave influences while still holding onto their folk and indie roots. The songs move between social commentary, dark humour, and melancholy, reflecting a time of uncertainty and disillusionment. Standouts include the pulsing “Severed” and the introspective “Once in My Life.” It’s a bold, polished record that finds the band stepping into new creative territory.
