The third album by Okkervil River, Black Sheep Boy is an emotional and sensitive record, at least that's what I gathered. Hailing from Austin, Texas (w00t w00t), the cover art is quite interesting and the songs are just as good. One could say that this is their best album to date and I would agree. When I was listening to this album, I felt that to fully feel an album, sound and lyric wise, you have to relax and take in what the ears are receiving. Often times one might thing they are listening to a record when, in reality, they are just hearing it and not listening. To put effort into a good listen, you have to appreciate all the album has to offer. So this record, being as in depth and intense as it is amazes me with the quality of how amazing it is. It's beautiful!
Enjoy!
