Review - Product Description
Named one of Alternative Press' Top 100 Bands to Watch in 2005, Horse the Band is rapidly gaining fame as a key innovator in the realm of hard rock music. Their brand of `nintendo core' has gained a huge devoted following among rock fans, gaining them spots on great tours like the Vans Warped Tour, Sounds of the Underground, and spots opening up for bands like Poison the Well and The Dillinger Escape Plan. After two full days of eating pizza in Chicago with guitarist Dave Isen's grandparents, the band decided to write a full EP about their experiences. Pizza is a special collectors' EP. The limited-edition release will be in a special digipak to be produced in limited quantities. Look for Horse the Band on tour with Dragonforce in September 2006.

- Pizza Knife! I mean nif

This EP is great, if im on a long road trip and getting tired I throw this bad boy on and it wakes me up! If you get a chance to see them live its one of the best shows I have been to. Whenever they play Anti-Pizza some guy dressed up like a pizza comes out and plays the triangle!

- Cheese Pizza

Somewhere along the line, the genius of bands like Converge and Refused got co-opted by guys with eyeliner and a Motley Crue fetish. Horse the band is basically the opposite of that. Metalcore/punk-metal with 8-bit sounding synth and tongue in cheek lyrics. Awesome. The TMNT theme song cover is the capper. While the music isn't groundbreaking, from a technical perspective, you have to remember that music is more about feeling. If you want the limits of technical playing, eventually you end up with idiots like Steve Vai (who does for metal what Kenny G does for jazz).

Sort of like the Vandals of metalcore... oh but they call themselves "Nintendo-core". Pretty fitting. Life is too short to whine about generic things, pizza is much more interesting.

- Pizzarrhea In The Pizzeria!

Amazing EP. I bought it when I first started listening to HTB. My Favorite band, and my second favorite CD in the world (the first being R. Borlax). The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle theme Cover is a real beast to listen to and blast in the car while screaming along with it. My favorite song would have to be Anti-Pizza.

Again, Amazing EP.

HORSE will always be the best money I ever spend on Music.

BUY THIS EP!

GET ALL OF THEIR ALBUMS!
