Okkervil River

stream Okkervil River's new album 'In The Rainbow Rain'

It’s got some of their folkiest music yet, but also some of their most electronic music yet, and as we heard at SXSW, there’s a song with lyrics about Ray Davies and a guitar solo that uses the vocal melody from The Kinks’ ”Waterloo Sunset.”
