Carissa's wierd (sic) band of horses

Play it: Band of Horses Everything All the Time

Band of Horses' Matt Brooke and Ben Bridwell used to be in the band Carissa's Wierd, here in Seattle. When that band broke up a couple years ago, Brooke and Bridwell formed November 16th, which, apparently, is now Band Of Horses. They opened for Iron & Wine, which got the attention of SubPop, who have scored again with this signing. Sounding a bit like a poor man's My Morning Jacket, Everything All the Time plays up the Neil Young (and even Flaming Lips at their Neil Young-loving best) references and the reverbed vocals. Not groundbreaking, but this boy's poor and loves his MMJ, so serve me up some more.
