Editorial Reviews:
Japanese enhanced pressing of their 2007 sophomore album featuring three bonus live audio tracks plus an enhanced video for 'Is There A Ghost'. Cease to Begin is the perfect title for this record. Not only do the songs themselves weave this theme through the record, but stopping and starting anew is also a reflection of the past year and a half for Band of Horses. Though they worked with producer Phil Ek again, as they did on their debut Everything All the Time, much has changed between the fairly recent then and now. For core members Ben Bridwell, Rob Hampton and Creighton Barrett, there has been a move from Seattle, WA to Mt. Pleasant, SC, a relocation that had been planned for some time so that they could all be closer to their families. And, close friends and family have come and gone some far too early. Necessarily shot through with these experiences, the songs on Cease to Begin are strikingly beautiful, if less elliptical and more straightforward, with more sophisticated arrangements than the last record. Tear Bridge Records. 2008.
