"Lake Song" (live acoustic video)
The audio quality is somewhat questionable, given that this was recorded outside, but we still get a good idea of what this folksy, lyrical song sounds like. It features Meloy's usual thesaurus-friendly poetry, and he declares that he is "17 and terminally fey."

The Decembrists' new album is called What a Terrible World, What a Beautiful World. In the video, Meloy confirms that it will be out on January 20.
