An Horse – Rearrange Beds

An Horse has gone from being completely unknown to me to favourite band in only a couple of weeks. After obsessively listening to their Not Really Scared EP on repeat for days and days, I found out that their album, Rearrange Beds, had been released on iTunes on October 21st.

Rearrange Beds features 10 songs, including the 5 ones that were on the Not Really Scared EP which was a bit of a downer but the result is a short but very solid debut album. Most of the songs are upbeat, feel-good music (Postcards, Horizons, Camp Out) with some exceptions : Listen, the closing song, is a plaintive melodica/guitar song and Little Lungs which reminds me very much of The Kills and has the best song progression of the whole 10. Overall, An Horse released a very good first album that’s worth checking out.

Tracklist :

1. Camp Out

Song Of The Day : An Horse – Company

I have a thing for Australian bands. The accent, of course. But there’s more than this in An Horse’s music. The duo, Kate Cooper (guitar + vocals) and Damon Cox (drums + vocals), play some indie pop/rock that’s catchy with a good depth to it despite the simplicity of the drums/guitar combination.

Their debut EP, Not Really Scared was released in April 2008 and features 5 songs that stick with you long after you’ve listened to them.

Tracklist : 

  1. Postcards
  2. Company
  3. Warm Hands
  4. Camp Out [That Kaki King covered for her DayTrotter Session as Gloves Off]
  5. Shoes Watch

Even though I pretty much listen to the whole EP on repeat, Company is the one song that I relate to the most lately, hence this choice.
