@chrisdeville @stereogum Is it easy? Did anyone ever reduce them to “The Funeral”? Entire album is great.

It's easy to reduce Band Of Horses to "The Funeral" or write them off as weak-sauce blog-rock from a time when indie was swerving toward the masses. But revisiting their debut 20 years later, I was stunned by how many great songs they strung together. 🐎

@jrmamana Thank you! Keep in mind that it was written by a generally corny and insubstantial person 🤷♂️

@chrisdeville i'm going to relisten entirely because of your great piece!

band of horses is interesting because they sort of married explosions in the sky and PNW guitar music and Southern rock and showed that that specific combination is extremely corny

I’m on week five of trying to vibe code a replacement for some dumb saas that we use and it’s so incredibly frustrating that I’m slowly realizing it’s actually a quite complex and thoughtful piece of software.

I wrote a gazillion words about my long history with Times New Viking, backing my way into local music from the internet, indie vs. Big Indie, and a reunion show that cast TNV as a link in a long chain of Columbus weirdo greats
