Enough happens musically on The Hazards of Love that I can still see it being fun for fans in a live setting, especially if you know the lyrics. On disc, though, it's largely missing the catchy choruses and verisimilar emotions that previously served as ballast for the Decemberists' gaudy eccentricities.
I'm afraid I completely agree with this assessment. I love the concept and how well Shara Worden of My Brightest Diamond fits with The Decemberists, but it's just not as fun as the previous albums and EPs were.
Colin Meloy has a great retort though (via twitter of course):
