I have been listening to Band of Horses' Cease to Begin non-stop. Album highlights are "No One's Gonna Love You" and "The General Specific." You can check out the whole album on MySpace here. There's something sort of Perry Farrell-esque about lead singer Ben Bridwell's vocals, and a country vibe to a few of the songs, especially "The General Specific." And as someone who's pretty anti-country music, I have to say I don't mind one bit.
Also, if you're looking for another band with distinct vocals, give a listen to the Silversun Pickups. Their album Carnavas is pretty great, and even MTV has finally started promoting them. Better late than never.

So, why when writing about "Band of Horses" do you post a photo of the cast from "Band of Brothers"? Come on!
