Texans Okkervil River have announced details of a brand new studio album.
In the Rainbow Rain is Will Sheff and co.’s latest collection of music to be put out via ATO Records, subsequently serving as their most “immediate and meaningful” record to date. The follow-up to 2016’s Away is due on 27 April, with Sheff adding that he wanted to “make a record where a sense of kindness felt encoded into the music.” Listen to new single Don’t Move Back to LA below.
The record has been described as a cacophony of “dazzling color, spattered with starbursts of electric guitar, big blooms of synth, and a chorus of backing vocals”. The War on Drugs and Perfume Genius collaborator Shawn Everett served as producer this time round, and you can check out the artwork and tracklist below.
