Here Come the Waves: The Hazards of Love Visualized

As if the Decemberists album Hazards of Love wasn't already awesome enough by itself, there's a new visualization of the story called Here Come the Waves (you can watch previews of the hour-long video here or here). It premiered exclusively on iTunes today, and although I haven't actually been able to watch it myself yet (my computer estimates another eight hours before it finishes downloading), from what I've seen, it's going to be simply amazing. It was directed by Guilherme Marcondes, Julia Pott, Peter Sluszka, and Santa Maria. Rather than being a literal blow-by-blow of the plot, it's instead going to be more of an artistic interpretation.

Here's some screen shots:
