Indie Rockers Prep Third Album, Release New Single
Band of Horses is one of my favorite bands. They have made two fantastic albums and they have a new one, Infinite Arms, on the way which I am quite excited for. Below you will find the video for their newest single, "Compliments".
The video as a whole is a great clip from a band who has a pretty consistent history of making quality videos (do yourself a favor and YouTube their video for "The Great Salt Lake"). It's essentially a collection of scenic nature photos that wouldn't be out of place in a Microsoft screensaver or in the pages of National Geographic. What makes the video different though is the use of an odd morphing technique that gives the whole video an unsettling, drug-trip feeling. It's taking something simple and making it complex. It all compliments the song quite well.
The track is available for free download at Band of Horses official website and Infinite Arms hits stores mid-May.

Cease To Begin is a fantastic album, maybe even better than Everything All The Time, but it sounds like they dialed down the mellow for the new one. I'm very interested; almost sounds like a Jimmy Eat World-type tune.
I think this video might officially be turning me on to Band of Horses. Can you explain to me more later how they do that with the photos? I think it's incredible.
