This album is such an underrated gem of indie folk, it’s a classic

I really like this band, but I tend to gravitate towards The Silver Gymnasium/Away era, I've struggled to it get into their earlier stuff as much

to cheat on Maine islands — days of laughter, nights of sighing
to love without ceasing — flowering orchards, salty sea-things
to say without shyness “unreal city, you have killed me”
when you walked out on her love was it easy?

I definitely will, Okkervil River tends to come into heavy rotation every autumn for me

This is perfect autumn listening. It's slower than pretty much every other one of their album but hngg i love it. Check War Criminal now if you have time, that's probably my pick for their best song, though Maine Island Lovers (& for real etc etc) is creeping.

Once I get out of this incorrigible black metal mood. Have been possessed by the spirit of garas lately
