Okkervil River's The Stand-Ins
just leaked, and who could a resist the temptation after the brilliant The Stage Names? The new album is perhaps a little less brilliant, but still wonderful.
The band's output of the last years shows musicians growing and changing in organic but still surprising ways.
The band has reached a level of tightness that pulls Will Sheff's lyrics, which would dominate most music, so close it would seem preposterous to single them out as special.
Okkervil River itself has become special.
