New tunes or rearrangements? How is it?

You shouldn't need to be ordered to get anything by The Decemberists, it should just be automatic.  :)

This is true... but when the ette in your life speaks one needs to be doing it sooner rather than later.

As a newbie to having an ette (nkotbette?), I'm learning this the hard way  :)

Yes, and you'll keep learning. Especially if you're not a diligent about cleaning the house as she is.   :)

BECK's THE INFORMATION DENIED ENTRY ON UK CHARTS
 
 Beck's The Information was released Monday, October 2 in the UK (and was released yesterday in the U.S.).
 
 Come next week, no matter how high its first week sales, The Information will not be charting in the UK due to a bizarre ruling by the UK's Official Chart Company.
 
 According to the OCC, The Information's packaging innovations--which have drawn early raves such as "Bonus points for the accompanying DVD and stickers that let CD buyers create their own customized covers" (WIRED)--render the record ineligible to chart in the UK.
 
 Ironically, the DVD of homemade videos for every song on The Information and the four random sticker sets designed by artists handpicked by Beck have been construed by the OCC as an "unfair advantage"--rather than what they actually are: unique and forward-thinking additional facets that expand the album experience beyond the purchase of a plastic disc.
 
 Beck is currently on tour in the U.S. through late October.

I'm just as diligent.  I just turns out I'm always doing it wrong.  :D

This is a longshot but has anyone else picked up Lindsey Buckingham's new one? There are a couple of good songs on it but so far it hasn't wowed me.

Got these from eMusic (as well as brand new Lemonheads, Joseph Arthur, Koop and Veruca Salt).  The Decemberists album, being their major label debut, is their first album or EP not available on eMusic...

I don't have it, but I think it's all new songs, plus a cover of Tripping Daisy's "Sonic Bloom"

I listened to a few songs.  It's just not my thing.
