Okkervil River - Black Sheep Boy (Vinyl)

Okkervil River - Black Sheep Boy (Vinyl)

'Black Sheep Boy' is Okkervil River's most ambitious and cinematic record yet, a love story and adult fable that evokes the mature songcraft of Leonard Cohen's 'New Skin for the Old Ceremony', the sophistication of Scott Walker's 'Scott 4', the shambling slow-motion bravado of Neil Young's 'On the Beach', and the raw nerves and trick effects of Big Star's 'Third/Sister Lovers'.
