Volcano Choir - the side project of Bon Iver frontman Justin Vernon - are to release their sophomore album later this year. Repave will see its release through Jagjaguwar on September 2nd/3rd, following 2009's Unmap. That's the artwork above, and fitting with the watery imagery, their new single "Byegone" boasts a crescendo where Vernon proclaims "Set sail!"

Okkervil River’s newly announced album, The Silver Gymnasium has had a little more revealed about its contents: According to frontman Will Sheff, the album “takes place in 1986 in a small town in New Hampshire.” You’ll find that town depicted in the new lyric video for the jaunty, piano-led track “It Was My Season” as a projector plays out the lyrics as the stage – which was built nearly a decade ago for a play called “The Woodland Princess” – goes from dawn to dusk.
