In stockThe Story
Okkervil River's 'I Am Very Far' is a daring departure from their previous work, blending terror and joy, violence and serenity into a monolithic, darkly ambiguous album. Frontman Will Sheff emerges as a producer and arranger of singular vision, crafting a dense, fragmented, and deeply personal record that rewards repeated listens.
