  • Bio

    .. ....The Less and Less (I Feel For You).... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ____________________________ .. .... .......... ....www.ilovealcopop.co.uk.. .. ____________________________ ....“A few things sounded nice when we wrote them down, then better when we said them out loud”.. ..Daniel Henley....____________________________.. .. Decades is the story of 14 arms and 14 legs, trying their best to move in the same direction. Not compounded by opinion; finally escaping the boundaries of narrow-minded perception. Decades create story books of music, songs sculpted from genuine emotion. The meaning of the word 'song' continues to escape the masses; it must be reclaimed as our own. Decades has created a catalogue of wistfully beautiful, enchanting songs made to be sung out loud. .. def: SONG .."a short poem or other set of words set to music, meant to be sung".. .. .. .....or .."a musical cry of some birds".. .. we must create. .. ..____________________________.. .. The tiniest breath of hope inhaled, with a liberal glimmer of truth. We won’t stay recumbent; not now .. Remember the stirring of hairs and that one emancipating shiver; as the notes resonate through our souls. Abandon monotony, and whisper sweetly into the ears of decades passed; ..“Like a faded love, we can’t rely on you anymore.”.. Feel elated, liberate the secret, for pastures new will lean through the clouds and guide us all on our way home. .. Devoted to devotion; awash with capacity; we must create. .. ..____________________________.. ....“I have been underestimated for decades; I have done very well that way”....Helmut Kohl.. .. ..____________________________.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .......... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..

  • Sounds Like

    ..Decades writes music in the vein of, but does not sound like:.. ..Sufjan Stevens ..Wilco ..Modest Mouse ..Arcade Fire ..Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds .. ..The printing press keeps on saying things like this:.... .."With vocals reminiscent of Guillemots and the whisky drenched sounds of accordions and string sections, Decades are an 8 piece country delight... On this form, Decades are surely going to please even the most ferocious of critics." .. "The layered alternative folk from this this London based eight piece sounds fresh. Its a pleasant change from the guitar driven bands that have been hitting my inbox. My love of well crafted lyrics has been well documented on the site in recent months. The delivery musically seems effortless, as does the vocal talent of Dan Henley."..
