The Decemberists, Portland's early 2000s indie darlings, have been called “literary alt-rock,” which is actually pretty accurate. Colin Meloy has one of the most instantly recognizable voices in indie music, and he and his merry crew bring their distinctive sound to The Bellwether on Monday night for the second of two shows at the intimate venue. Their upcoming album ninth studio album, As It Ever Was So Will It Be Again, was just released last month.
