Band of Horses

Cease to Begin

2008-03-24

This is an all-around good indie-rock album. It is nicely produced and has a dreamy quality. Some of the tracks are country-ish with Jayhawks-sounding harmonies such as tracks 5 and 8. Other songs rock in a lush way such as tracks 2 and 9. Highlights are: Track #1 “Is There a Ghost”, Track #2 “Ode to LRC”, Track #9 “Cigarettes, Wedding Bands”, and the quiet Track #3 “No One’s Gonna Love You”. - Rebecca Ruth
