Band of Horses has made a video for the song “Compliments” available as a free stream and download via their website: www.bandofhorses.com.
Produced by Band of Horses with additional production from Phil Ek and mixed by Dave Sardy, the songs on Infinite Arms project the essence of the different locales across America that became the setting for the recording and songwriting process behind the album. The rich musical heritage of Muscle Shoals, AL, the sublime beauty of Asheville’s Blue Ridge Mountains, the glamorous Hollywood Hills and the vast Mojave desert all influenced the sounds on Infinite Arms and helped yield the group’s most focused and dynamic recordings to date. The serene woods of Northern Minnesota and the band’s native Carolinas inspired the songwriting, lending the compositions an air of comfort and familiarity.

Thank YOU Ash! Love your blog 🙂
nope, not sensitive. just posted everything. thank you for your comments!
Haha, not at all, actually. I was just wondering. But obviously someone here is, since you felt the need to post the confused exchange rather than simply post the original comment and leave it at that 🙂
Ricky, i was out of town for Easter weekend and catching up on Monday.
Are you sensitive much?
Wow, didn’t post my comment. Sensitive much?
Really feel BOH hit their creative peak somewhere between their first and second albums. Saw them play a lot of the new material (including this song) at a show a year ago and thought they were wandering unfortunately close to rock-by-numbers, with really trite sounding lyrics and themes. It’s cool that Tyler Ramsey is contributing a lot to this new album, but I’m afraid it’s more of a sign that Ben is growing short on ideas than it is any real integration of growth.
