Are you sitting comfortably?. Then we'll begin. The lucid and hazy sound of lingering shoegazer guitars textured with haunting vocals reverberates around the room. The difference between the new and the old album is distance, both emotional and physical.

ReviewsIncluded in Rolling Stone's "50 Top Albums of the Year 2007" -- "This music is simultaneously downcast and sky-cresting...", 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Long on dreamlike, rootsy songs that top churning guitars with glacially pretty, reverb-slathered vocals....CEASE TO BEGIN is expertly made...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "From the anthem-like 'Ode To LRC' to the sanguine finale of 'Window Blues,' this is beautifully paced and utterly beguiling.", 3 stars out of 5 -- "The 10 songs here rely on slightly reedy and meandering country-rock. It's a sound that devotees of Crazy Horse or My Morning Jacket will find conspicuously pleasing...", "The album marked a new chapter in Band of Horses’ development, as well as a shift in Bridwell’s writing, veering from the soft-focus impressionism toward a more narrative-driven style.", 4 Stars Out of 5 -- "Every Sound Lingers, and Each Stretched-Out Moment Is Welcome.", "Bridwell and Co. nail the soft/loud dynamic better than any group in recent memory, and CEASE TO BEGIN is a fine, fitting return to familiar ground.", "For Those with more Eclectic Tastes, Cease to Begin Is an Enthralling Album..."
