Lost in my excitement about new material from The National is the first preview of the forthcoming album from Band of Horses, Infinite Arms (out May 18 on Brown/Fat Possum/Columbia).
The band released this video for Compliments last week, and my guess is the kaleidoscope-like visuals seemed way cooler after the first few hits, duuuudes. You can download the video (but not an mp3 … weird) at the Band of Horses site and pre-order the album at Fat Possum.
I saw them for the third time about a month ago at the Ogden Theatre in Denver. The new material is definitely different, a bit of a departure from their epic style of before, but I thought it was great stuff. A bit more of a country influence is prevalent. I’m psyched for the album.
I’m so ready for this/ Now if we could just get a Phoenix date on their tour!
