    RO: Okkervil River really should be talked about as much as The Mountain Goats are on here. Just saying.

    I know trident is a pretty big fan of these guys, but I've never looked into them myself.

    I think Okkervil River is alright, but nothing too special, sorry Runesmith.

    Edit: Although I should qualify this by saying I've only heard The Stage Names.

    Prefer them to TMG, to be honest... then again, that sort of music really isn't my thing, as I've said before.

    I need to listen to some more newer releases. I'm very out of touch, I've been going back and doing some discography listens of old favorites.

    If you haven't checked out the new J Mascis album, I'd recommend doing so.

    As much as I love Dinosaur Jr, I actually haven't listened to any of J Mascis's solo work. I'll check it out. I've also been meaning to check out Paul Westerberg's solo work for awhile now.

    Will put that on my list... have a few bands I'm checking out first, but I'll get on that. Should be interesting.

    This was the first J Mascis solo album I've listened to, and it was really good. Not like his Dinosaur Jr. work really, either, what with it being mostly acoustic and all.

    Each of his projects bring something different to the table - I'm most partial to Witch (huge surprise, I know), though.
