New album: Okkervil River

Sheff and country rock team-mates return to the gym…

Okkervil River have announced details of the band’s follow-up to 2009’s I Am Very Far. Artwork, tracklisting, release date and two new tracks have all been rolled out as a precursor to the Texan’s seventh record. As frontman and chief songwriter Will Sheff is prone to – and skilfully adept at – doing, The Silver Gymnasium is a concept album set way back in 1986 Meriden, New Hampshire (NH) or in Sheff’s words “a tribute to the spirit of pre-adolescence, meant to evoke the nostalgic feeling of an action figure you found in the woods.”
