This is a vinyl LP pressing of Things Are Great by Band of Horses. The American Grammy-nominated rock band released their sixth studio album on January 21, 2022, via BMG Rights Management. Produced by frontman, Ben Bridwell, sonically the album is a return to the band's earlier work and the kind of raw ethos that lies at the heart of Band of Horses. The album features collaborators such as Grandaddy’s Jason Lytle, Dave Fridmann, Dave Sardy, and for the first time, he worked with engineer Wolfgang “Wolfie” Zimmerman. The two had an instant connection which can be felt throughout the record.

There might be no other band that was able to channel the generational anxiety of 20-somethings in those early millennial years and turn it into such powerful and inclusive art. Band of Horses fashioned gorgeously ragged epics, Ben Bridwell’s high-flying vocals and eccentric enunciation floating like a spectre over sweeping soundscapes that felt like a prelude to a dream. The songs always veered between two points: dark and light, strength and vulnerability, apathy and devotion, hope and despair, but hope always nosed a little ahead.
