Yes, the band has written an ode to Valerie Plame, the former CIA agent whose outing by conservative columnist Robert Novak in 2003 sparked the whole Scooter Libby/Karl Rove/Judith Miller affair. As Stereogum reports , a press release describes the song, simply titled, "Valerie Plame," as being told from "the point-of-view of one of Plame's inside contacts upon discovering her true identity," also stating that its "an amorous tribute to the onetime CIA operative." According to Stereogum, the track, which is part of a three-volume singles series the band will start rolling out this fall, will be available for purchase on Oct. 14. And, in a strategic move, they will perform it live on Late Night With Conan O'brien on Nov. 3, the night before the election. Of course this is not the Decemberists' first riveting tale of espionage. Their 2005 album, Picaresque , includes a fairly epic, and also bittersweet, track called "The Bagman's Gambit" (posted below) that evokes the excitement and perils of the spying life. Although, with signature Colin Meloy alliteration like "Purloined in Petrograd," we presume the setting for that song is a bit more old-fashioned.

As far as we know the promise for an album in 2009 still stands, although this is not it; the project's dubbed Always The Bridesmaid: A Singles Series , and will unfold in three volumes, beginning this October. As you already read a few inches above, it includes a song about outed C.I.A. operative Valerie Plame , entitled "Valerie Plame," press-release described as being from "the point-of-view of one of Plame's inside contacts upon discovering her true identity, the song is an amorous tribute to the onetime CIA operative." You can buy it on 10/14 in Volume I, or you can watch it performed live on Conan the night of 11/3 aka Election Eve. Very political , these Decemberists. Lots of purchase info below.

Sir, we've now learned through sworn testimony that at least three members of your administration, other than Scooter Libby, leaked Valerie Plame's identity to the media. None of these three is known to be under investigation. Without commenting on the Libby trial, then, can you tell us whether you authorized any of these three to do that, or were they authorized without your permission? THE PRESIDENT: Yes, thanks, Pete. I'm not going to talk about any of it. read more Fri, 22 Aug 2008 12:18:15 GMT http://www.wikio.com/search/Plame?rinfoid=68615112 2008-08-22T12:18:15Z http://www.wikio.com/search/Plame?rinfoid=68619300 The Decemberists have announced plans to release a singles series, the first of which will be released October 14.
