Knock, Knock


First impression. Not a fan of that song. Wouldn't be in my top 10 BoH songs. Still looking forward to the album release in September.

Does it sound like a song to do heroin to?

Big fan of Band of Horses. This song does nothing for me. Hopefully the rest of the album will be better.

Wayyyy too upbeat. Try listening to Blue Beard or Detlef Schrimpf if you're looking to ride the dragon with BoH.

Agreed. But it's a single, sometimes it works out that way.

They have been too consistent for me to say "This sucks."

Cease to Begin may be my favorite album ever. There's not a song I don't like on there.

Prop Joe was just being sarcastic about BoH making you want to shoot heroin, so I was saying the new single was to upbeat for that.

How did y'all feel about Infinite Arms?

I loved Cease to Begin and Everything All The Time but couldn't seem to get into IA.

Saw them at Tipitinas a few years ago, great show (except that I got dehydrated and ptfo like a child...no, not drunk)

I have to be in a certain mood to listen to Infinite Arms. I really do like most of the songs on that album, especially Dilly, but I have to be ready to just relax to listen to most of the other songs except maybe NW Apt.

They need to get back to Louisiana. I missed them when they went to Spanish Moon in '08, because I couldn't find anyone to go with.

I'm on the fence with this song but it's not bad by any means. I agree with others, this isn't one of my favorites. Still super excited for the new album in September. Hard to believe that's only two months away.

I really liked infinite arms. I will say it was my first major exposure to them, maybe I'd feel differently if I had listened to the older stuff first. There isn't a BOH song I don't like. Evening Kitchen off of IA is my favorite song of theirs.
