Listen: New Band Of Horses record Infinite Arms

So, erm, people commented on the new Band of Horses record since a couple of tracks were made available, plus a video and a performance on Later...With Jools Holland.Many of the comments were disparaging, one comparing them to Snow Patrol, presumably latter period.

Anyway, enough of the conjecture, you can judge for yourself, without any bias, as they've uploaded the whole of Infinite Arms onto SoundCloud. That means we can embed the entire album with a minimum of ease. Tell us what you really think below.

Infinite Arms by bandofhorses

Infinite Arms is released on May 18. Keep your eyes peeled for our review of it. A few weeks ago they finished a European tour, but they'll return at the beginning of next month to play an additional few dates including one, ironically or aptly, supporting Snow Patrol, in Glasgow. See below:

June:
5 - Bangor, Ward Park
9 - London, Roundhouse
12 - Glasgow, Bellahouston Park

dissapointing

Apparently losing Matt Brooke is a pretty big deal

cos it sounds like CtB pt2, and that's not a compliment. That said, it's pretty good (like CtB)...but nowhere near the heights EATT reached. 6.5/10

I like it!

It's a mixed bag

Some really nice songs on there (Factory, Way Back Home and Evening Kitchen), but some pretty average ones too.

Still looking forward to seeing them live again next month. Always worth hearing Funeral and Monsters if nothing else.

I think they have stepped into pop a little bit too much

the new record is fun and instantly catchy but playing Everything All The Time after it reinforces how their quality control has dropped.

Up on Spotify now aswel
