Reviews

Okkervil River: 8 May 2009 - Sydney, Australia

One thing that Okkervil River did exceptionally well was fall apart. [15 June 2009]

Okkervil River: Pop Lie EP

Okkervil River's Pop Lie explores our roles in creating celebrity and deconstructing dreams, with the swirling sugar-rush of synthesizers and irresistible high-energy hook of the single. [11 May 2009]

Okkervil River: The Stand Ins

Okkervil River is poised for greatness and The Stand Ins may very well be the record to take them there. [8 September 2008]

Okkervil River

Okkervil River has become part of the growing body of hyper-referential, linked-in art that represents the fractured yet joyous way we accumulate knowledge on and off the information superhighway. [13 March 2008]

Okkervil River: The Stage Names

Okkervil River's new album is filled with moments that remind us again why this band is considered one of the finest indie rock groups in the US. [8 August 2007]

Okkervil River: The Presidents Dead

Okkervil River provides a focused and complex pair of songs using unexpected colors and surprising tones. [1 May 2007]

Okkervil River: Black Sheep Boy Appendix

Austin folkies spin their dark pop web further into the depths with a mini-album, using recent B-sides as a jumping-off point, that rivals this band-on-the-rise's most solid efforts to date. [28 November 2005]

Okkervil River: Black Sheep Boy

This reviewer's early, although confident, pick for Album of the Year. [8 April 2005]

Okkervil River: Sleep and Wake-Up Songs

Okkervil River, in 5 gorgeous songs, lay to waste many critics' 'best-of' picks. [20 January 2005]
