Ep. #1117: Horse Lords

Andrew Bernstein and Max Eilbacher from Horse Lords are here to discuss their new album Demand to Be Taken to Heaven Alive!, excellent Indian food in Winnipeg, why all of Horse Lords now live in Germany, being tagged as “Krautrock” and residential coincidences, the socio-economic conditions that might spur artists to migrate around the world, whether or not the rise of Angine de Poitrine means inventive instrumental music is having a moment in popular culture, why and how the new album incorporates Sacred Harp singing, utopian and dystopian concepts and addressing geopolitics as an instrumental band, recording drums really separately, upcoming shows, other future plans, and much more.
