Lots of praise has been given to their unique sound (think latter day Earth paired with Neil Young and topped off with black metal influenced vocals) and rightfully so. Have a listen to \u201cInvokation\u201d below or head over to their <a title=\"Horseback - Bandcamp\" href=\"http:\/\/horseback.bandcamp.com\/\">Bandcamp page<\/a> to hear for yourself. Buy some stuff while you\u2019re there too.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"400\" height=\"100\" style=\"position: relative; display: block; width: 400px; height: 100px;\" src=\"http:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/v=2\/track=3278135036\/size=venti\/linkcol=f5634a\/\" allowtransparency=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\"><a href=\"http:\/\/horseback.bandcamp.com\/track\/invokation\">Invokation by Horseback<\/a><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>In addition to solid tunes, Horseback have some stunning album covers. <a title=\"Denis Forkas Kostromitin\" href=\"http:\/\/www.denisforkas.com\/\">Denis Forkas Kostromitin<\/a> painted the covers for both <a title=\"Horseback - Half Blood\" href=\"http:\/\/horseback.bandcamp.com\/album\/half-blood\"><em>Half Blood<\/em><\/a> and <a title=\"Horseback - The Gorgon Tongue: Impale Golden Horn + Forbidden Planet \" href=\"http:\/\/horseback.bandcamp.com\/album\/the-gorgon-tongue-impale-golden-horn-forbidden-planet\"><em>The Gorgon Tongue: Impale Golden Horn + Forbidden Planet<\/em><\/a>.
