Band of Horses vs The National
The highly-anticipated new albums from favourites The National and Band of Horses seem to be in something of a space race. BoH followed The National's free Bloodbuzz Ohio download with an mp3 of their own - Compliments. Now both bands have loaded up a second preview - Laredo from Band of Horses and Afraid of Everyone from The National.
The National definitely have their man in space first, but let's hope Band of Horses are holding something back for the moon landing. So far it sounds somewhat predictably like a low-key-down-home-jamming-round-the-campfire album... An up-to-$99 campfire album, judging by their new self-selling website.
