With less than a month until the May 18th release of the new
Band of Horses album
Infinite Arms, the band has offered up a track from it for download on their website. "Factory", the album's string-heavy opener, is a glorious sounding one. It is beautifully captivating in all honesty.
I can easily see this in a sappy [terrible] Jennifer Aniston rom-com. When heard, "Factory" conjures up images of Jen and her beau of the month frolicking on a beach. It's really easy to see with the warmth and serenity in Ben Bridwell's voice. The lyrics tell a short story and the beautiful omnipresent string section helps convey the tale. If the rest of
Infinite Arms sounds as beautiful as "Factory", we are in for a treat.

Infinite Arms is due out May 18th. -
