Cry Me An Okkervil River

Okkervil River has been a personal favorite for a while, but at the same time a band I never had huge obsessive periods with. What I do know is their song "Ends With A Fall" is probably the best break-up song ever ("When we met I should have said 'you're like a sister to me' "). I just snagged a copy of their newest album, The Stage Names, and am really diggin it. Their songwriting is just as solid as ever. My favorite song at this point is "Love to A Monster". There's certainly some 'screw you' themes going on:

"I hope you get angry and hurt,
and have the hardest of landings.
And I hope your new man thinks of me,
when he sees what a number I did on you"

or how about this:

"Turn my eyes
to the blonde in the bleachers.
She's a lovely young creature.
I think she's seeking adventure.
I think she's ready to see that the world isn't so sweet or so tender.
I won't break her, just bend her, and make her into my new ringer for you."

Basically this song makes you want to break up with someone just so the song will be that much more intense.

So - how does it rank on your 'albums of the year' list so far?
I just bought the new Iron and Wine album - I like it so far. I was going to buy this album, but I found Motorhead's 'Ace of Spades' used - and I've been kind of jonesin' for Motorhead ever since I saw 'Shoot 'em Up.'
