If it happens at all, it happens naturally — and perhaps nobody knows that better than Seattle, Washington’s Band of Horses. Guitarist\/vocalist Ben Bridwell and bassist Mat Brooke formed Band of Horses in 2004, after the dissolution of their nearly ten-year run in northwest melancholic darlings Carissa’s Wierd. Carissa’s Wierd trafficked in sadly beautiful orchestral pop, whose songs told unflinching stories of heartbreak and loss, leavened with defeatist humor. And, Band of Horses rises from the ashes of that well-loved and short-lived band. After playing music with each other for over a decade, Bridwell and Brooke picked up together again when Bridwell began fleshing out his compositions post-Carissa’s. “It was really just a natural thing we started doing,” explains Bridwell. Buoyed by Bridwell’s warm, reverb-heavy vocals (which strangely channel a dichotomous blend of Wayne Coyne, Brian Wilson and Doug Martsch,) Band of Horses’ woodsy, dreamy songs ooze with amorphous tension, longing and hope. At times raggedly epic (“The Great Salt Lake”) and delicately pensive (“St. Augustine,” “Monsters”), Everything All the Time is an album painted gorgeously in fragile highs and lows.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Band of Horses","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":31826158780512,"sku":"706901","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":31826158813280,"sku":"706902","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cassette","offer_id":31826158846048,"sku":"706904","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Digital","offer_id":32556526108768,"sku":"706906","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0110\/1882\/9920\/files\/BandOfHorses_EverythingAllTheTime_LP_MockUp.jpg?v=1741201153"},{"product_id":"band-of-horses_cease-to-begin","title":"Cease to Begin","description":"\u003cp\u003eReleased in March of 2006, \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.subpop.com\/artists\/band_of_horses\"\u003eBand of Horses’\u003c\/a\u003e debut \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.subpop.com\/releases\/band_of_horses\/full_lengths\/everthing_all_the_time\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eEverything All the Time\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e propelled the band from early shows opening for friends \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.subpop.com\/artists\/iron_and_wine\"\u003eIron \u0026amp; Wine\u003c\/a\u003e, to playing on \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Late Show with David Letterman\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e by July, and being nominated as one of ten finalists (along with Joanna Newsom, Beirut, Tom Waits, and, the eventual winner, Cat Power) for the \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.shortlistofmusic.com\/\"\u003eShortlist Music Prize\u003c\/a\u003e for that same year.
