With a fresh line-up, fresh record label, and fresh LP on the way, Band Of Horses have surely chosen the most applicable name for their collective. These guys are definitely unified and sure are as strong minded and hard-working as the name suggests. The Seattle sextet has parted ways with SubPop and will be putting their third LP, Infinite Arms, out via a number of recording companies including: Columbia, frontmand Ben Bridwell's very own Brown Records, and Fat Possum.

Your well-earned pennies will be able to purchase the album on May 18th, and although there are no early hints as to wether the record is an advancement form 2007's Cease To Begin, the artwork for the album is every bit as scenic. Photographer Christopher Wilson has provided the band with a starry stream dream setting for the cover. Check it out in the gallery below.

The album has been recorded over the last sixteen months by the band themselves, with Phil Ek providing insight and helping hands whenever needed. In support of the release the band are embarking on a European and US tour which kicks off on 15th March.
