Our Take

Alright, buckle up, folks, because we've got a wild ride with Okkervil River's latest album, "I Am Very Far." The band truly lives up to their name, taking us on a musical journey that feels like we've been whisked away to a distant land.

From the get-go, lead singer Will Sheff's vocals are like a soothing balm for the soul, guiding us through a maze of intricate melodies and haunting lyrics. The instrumentation on this album is nothing short of mesmerising, with layers upon layers of sound that build and swell like a musical crescendo.

Tracks like "Rider" and "Wake and Be Fine" showcase the band's ability to seamlessly blend folk, rock, and indie influences into a harmonious whole. The production on this album is top-notch, with every instrument and vocal line feeling perfectly balanced and expertly mixed.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows - tracks like "We Need a Myth" and "Hanging From a Hit" delve into darker, more introspective territory, giving the album a depth and complexity that truly sets it apart from their previous work.

Overall, "I Am Very Far" is a triumph for Okkervil River, proving once again that they are a band that refuses to be pigeonholed. So sit back, relax, and let the music wash over you - you won't be disappointed.
