#17 Cougar Microbes Top Albums of 2010: Band Of Horses – Infinite Arms

It is safe to say Band of Horses have had a great 2010. On top of seeing a brilliant cover of their anthem ‘No One’s Gonna Love You’ released by Cee Lo Green, and repaying the favour by recording his ‘Georgia’, the band brought out their 3rd studio albumInfinite Arms’.

The band took the opportunity to write and record the tracks that would make ‘Infinite Arms’ in multiple locations across the East and West coasts of America and this inherent freedom seeps through to the recordings. Whilst this approach could have led several lesser bands to lose their focus the South Carolina outfit have never sounded this tight.

Infinite Arms’ is unequivocally a Band Of Horses album but it also represents their most impressive set of songs to date taking them from indie scene darlings to international contenders.
