Look, from time to time we may refer to Band of Horses as 'Band of Snorses,' but that doesn't mean we don't love them. "Funeral" is one of the best bits of emote-rock in recent memory, and the first two lines never fail to elicit a single tear. Although 2010's Infinite Arms failed to get our blood pumping, this new collection is really promising and different. Band of McHorses (I'm Loving It). Experience it for yourself, front to back, start to finish, from the hilariously named "Dumpster World" to the poetic "Long Vowels."



Mirage Rock is out next week, 9/18, via Columbia.
