Video: Band of Horses, “Laredo”

July 15, 2010


Look, this is not going to come out right but Band of Horses is the perfect dad rock band. Whiskey, cigars, silent trips out to western scenery. This is what dad is listening to while you shut the fuck up in the back and play the license plate game. And then when you get old enough to raid your dad's record collection, you go see them play at that awesome psychedelic club in Tuscon or wherever that is in this video. Then when you become your dad you show old videos of your youth like in this video. Band of Horses is the male cycle of growth distilled. Just because you have tattoos doesn't mean you can't raise a family and just because you're a dad doesn't mean you can't jam. For the record there was an Ace Hardware ad before this video, think there might be someone in marketing who agrees with us.
