Rusalka, Rusalka/Wild Rushes

Artist: The Decemberists

Album: I’ll Be Your Girl (2018)

Why Its Great: This is a lush, beautifully-paced telling of a Russian folktale and the sound of the keys is just as deep and unforgiving as the water in the story.

Best Listened To: As you stand at the water’s edge contemplating a pact with an unknowable entity.

Key Lyric: For deeper the water/The sweeter the sin
