The comparisons are inevitable, so let's just go ahead and make 'em: Band of Horses ride in like a Southern-fried Flaming Lips, like a sleepy-time Crazy Horse, like a simpler, more austere My Morning Jacket. With Everything All the Time, vocalist Ben Bridwell and former Carissa's Weird bandmate Mat Brooke show impressive mood-manipulation skills despite relatively simplistic songwriting, and the sweetly reverbed ''I Go to the Barn Because I Like The'' might be this year's prettiest love song so far. B+
