hey guys im a massive fan of the band okkervil river and i don't know anyone has heard of them let alone like them. So i ask has anyone heard their music? if so what do you think?

If you havent heard them before i suggest you check out their myspace.

i've heard 'black sheep boy' and i love it. strangely, i never got around to any of their other albums. any recommendation's?

[clinton_09]

yeh black sheep boy is their best album. They brought out another one last year but that nver did well and is quite different from 'black sheep boy'. They are bringing out a new album i think the release is september 9th called 'the stand ins'. This cd will carry alot of expectations as it has been suggested this could be the album that makes them big. So i would say check that one out for sure
