The Hazards of Love, the forthcoming rock opera from Portland drama-nerds the Decemberists, already had a totally ridiculous-looking tracklist, and now it has an album cover, too. I have to applaud the band's judgement in not using a repulsively ugly Lemony Snicket-looking drawing this time.The Hazards of Love will be out March 24 on Capitol, and, as previously reported, it features appearances from My Brightest Diamond's Shara Worden and Lavender Diamond's Becky Stark, as well as a few people who don't have the word "diamond" in their band names: My Morning Jacket's Jim James, the Spinanes' Rebecca Gates, and Robyn Hitchcock. Alas, Decemberists fan Kanye West did not provide a guest drop.Still no live dates planned, so you guys won't get to scream like you're being swallowed by a whale anytime soon, sorry.

I don't know if you guys know this about me, but I am tall. As in: Freaky tall, NBA-starting-center tall, regularly-hit-my-head-on-doorways tall. (Here's an article that I wrote about it a few months ago.) This is mostly a good thing. People remember my name, I can see at shows, and I can reach things on…

Every month, Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda shares a new Hamilton-inspired song as part of what he calls his Hamildrops. In the recent past, that's included tracks from people like "Weird Al" Yankovic and the Decemberists -- people who, you might not be shocked to learn, might do songs inspired by Broadway musicals.
