For whatever reason, late-stage Okkervil River has a lot of clever, lyrically cute as well as emotionally charged things to say. They also employ plenty a creative writing to run the album with. Somehow I am a little more excited by this album that is all over the place and melancholy than with some of their earlier straightforward indie folk gravel

| 3.5 great | Benjamin Kuettel EMERITUS | May 1st 18 |
A diverse and feel-good indie pop album with spring-time vibes and plenty of '80s and contemporary influences alike, including The War on Drugs, The Killers, even a little Blackstar by David Bowie too. Despite some cliche'd ideas that pop up from time to time, In The Rainbow Rain succeeds due to the earnestness of the songwriting and enough adventurous musical ideas to justify multiple listens. Not quite as deep and compelling as predecessor Away, but a finely crafted, breezy, very enjoyable record in its own right.
