This album, by the awesome Okkervil River, is simply amazing. I had heard one song, Black, ages ago and proper loved it, but didn’t get the full album until a couple of months ago. Every song is a pure work of genius, every sentence in this is perfect. I kind of like really wordy songs, like Bright Eyes, Elliott Smith, Sufjan Stevens style. This guy, Will Sheff, is better than all of them. Well except maybe Sufjan Stevens and Elliott Smith

I’ve had it on repeat all day - you’d think I’d get bored but god no.

Though I know that it never can be, I’d be pleased to post your decrees, to fall at your knees, to name all your streets and to sit down and weep when you’re carried back through them and set down to sleep, and to lie by your side for sublime centuries.
