Horse the Band teeter on the brink of brilliance, total ruin and extinction. All day. Every day. This mere fact of their existence is masterfully executed by and evidenced on their latest slab of artful noise, “Desperate Living”, an album which is inspired by the John Waters’ film of the same name and the experiences the band has endured over the past several years in the eats-its-young music business. Rather than sack up and get in line as the next tasty meal to be devoured by the music business beast, Horse the Band decided to write their own rules regarding their career. It wasn’t easy, but they learned a whole fucking lot.
