One of my favourite bands but never seem to get that much attention on here. I understand they're an acquired taste and all, but who isn't?

Some questions:

Favourite album? (Not sure I could say)

Favourite song? (Grace Cathedral Hill)

Do you think Hazards of Love is a masterpiece or a failure? (Masterpiece)

Did you like the folkish direction of The King is Dead? (Not particularly)

Did you know Colin Meloy has written a novel with a sequel on the way and have you read them? (No but I'd like to - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Wildwood-Colin-Meloy/dp/085786324X )
