Okkervil River Giving Away New EP of Covers

Okkervil River have made a 9-track mixtape of cover songs called Golden Oppportunities available as a free download on their website.  Not only do you get the music but they're offering liner notes and printable artwork for download as well.  The album features songs from The Fugs, John Cale, Randy Newman, and Serge Gainsbourg among others along with thematic ties to "The Stage Names".

The songs from Golden Opportunities were recorded at various radio stations, concerts and empty hotel stairwells while the band was on tour in Europe and America over the last year.  Make sure you download the mixtape here.  The Serge Gainsbourg cover below should be more than enough reason to hurry up and get that done.
