When Band of Horses surfaced in 2006 with Everything All the Time, the band's rugged take on rock & roll

drew quick parallels to My Morning Jacket and early Neil Young. That's mighty nice company for a young

band, but co-founder Mat Brooke nevertheless left the lineup that same summer, choosing to blaze his own

trail with Grand Archives instead. Ben Bridwell, Brooke's musical partner for nearly a decade, was left in

control of Horses -- a daunting position for the former Carissa's Weird bassist, but one that ultimately

resulted in a sophisticated, mature, and altogether superior follow-up. Cease to Begin is the responsible

adult to Time's reckless teenager, with Bridwell pitting his high, clear tenor against backdrops of hazy

indie rock and campfire singalongs. While tracks like "Weed Party" showed the band having harmless (albeit

adolescent) fun on their debut, the good times on Cease to Begin are more grown-up: a lo-fi, foot-stomping

pop ditty ("The General Specific"), a brief interlude of instrumental watercolors ("Lamb on the Lam [In the

City]"), a detour into twangy country ("Marry Song"). Those looking for more anthemic rock will gravitate

toward kickoff track "Is There a Ghost," where the guitars are loud and Bridwell's vocals are candy-coated

in reverb, but Cease to Begin shines it brightest under the twilight glow of "Detlef Schrempf."

Historically, Schrempf was a German-born NBA basketball player with killer three-point accuracy -- and

while that's certainly an odd choice for a song title, it's easy to forget as drums beat a lazy rhythm

beneath Bridwell's falsetto. Who knows whether he's singing to a hometown, a loved one, or his favorite

member of the Seattle SuperSonics? It's still a thrilling listen, and the subtle humor hints that Band of

Horses isn't growing up too quickly.
