A Portland-based band named after a Scottish folk song with a nasal lead singer, lots of strings and vaguely 1909 affections can't help but be compared to The Decemberists. Especially if said band toured with The Decemberists last year.
The key to Loch Lomond is that they take a looser, more experimental take on the old-school style - like a 60's film auteur more concerned with feeling than historical accuracy cleverness.
