Band of Horses - Infinite Arms (5/18/10)
Early indications are that this could be the go to album of the summer. They sound like summer, fresh, hot, sunny, sad, mellow, upbeat and happy with a slice of lemon, like the smell of cigarettes at a baseball game (back in the day) that for some reason, even though you hate the smell of cigarettes, brings back good memories. Their last album, Cease to Begin, which came out almost three years ago, is one of my favorites. Listen to the first song, "Is There a Ghost" from the last album and you'll be hooked. I saw them last year, when my daughter was negative 3 weeks, at the kids stage at Lollapallooza. It made me crazy like coconuts, in a good way. You probably know them from the song "The Funeral", which is from their first album, Everything All The Time, and was featured in a bunch of commercials. Bottom line - buy the new album, it will put you in the mood for summer. Download a free song from the album here if you want to check it out first.
