2007 Year End Lists (country, house, rock, genre, white stripes)

alright, well we've all got slightly different opinions then, but that's cool. What is Okkervil River's best album?

^Black Sheep Boy from 2005 (i think) for sure. I absolutly loved that album, it was really good

Yeah Black Sheep Boy is easily their best. I can upload it plus the appendix if you want. If you're looking for something new they're not the place to go but they're probably the best indie/alt-country whatever band in the past 10 years. I wouldn't pick the Stage Names as number 1 (In Rainbows, The Magic Position, Person Pitch, or Night Falls Over Kortedala for me.) but I think it was a good album just because they don't do anything new doesn't mean they do it bad/

If you could upload Black Sheep Boy, I'll give it a shot. Thanks.

Let me rip it now.

I need to pick up that album.

The one I've got (the new one) is really good stuff.

typical ignorant answer

and to whoever said MIA can't write good lyrics:

it's not her fault that you can't understand her metaphors and slang. okkervil river writes lyrics that sound like they came from a 10th grader in creative writing

I can understand MIAs' metaphors and slang and I still think she's crap.
