Okkervil River – The Stand Ins


Okkervil River is back with the direct sequel to last year’s “The Stage Names”. Artwork, some of the songs… they all fit together nicely. And just like on last year’s “The Stage Names”, these Austin indie rockers filled “The Stand Ins” with charming songs that read like novels and are beautifully arranged with strings, horn sections and vocal harmonies. Just think of Bonnie Prince Billy and My Morning Jacket and you’ll get the gist of it.
Score: 7 out of 10
