Horse The Band tease 'The Mechanical Hand' 20 year anniversary

horse the band

California Nintendocore ensemble Horse The Band posted a single, blurry teaser image on Instagram, and fans were quick to recognize it as a shot from The Mechanical Hand, their 2005 studio album. But that's all the band gave up—no further details.

Last year, they reissued The Mechanical Hand on vinyl for Record Store Day 2023 and also re-released R. Borlax on cassette for its 20th anniversary. This year they re-released A Natural Death re-issue for Record Store Day 2024, this was also the first time the album was pressed to vinyl. Their last studio output was the 2009 album Desperate Living, followed by a three-track EP, Your Fault.

The Mechanical Hand was released on April 25, 2005 through Combat Records leaving fans to wonder what the band has planned, if anything. According to Setlist.fm the last time Horse The Band performed live was during the group's "A Partridge Tour", a 3 date West Coast run in December 2019.

The post has many fans speculating what the band could be teasing. A show, a tour, or just another special release to celebrate the 20 year anniversary of The Mechanical Hand

glad to see napoleon dynamite is still in the band

AOC and Napoleon Dynamite comments were hilarious. That said this band actually did something different, had their own sound, and I loved this album in 9th grade.

This band played the Subterranean in Chicago way back when and the synth/keyboard kid got pissed at the crowd because the crowd kept chucking drinks on the synth.
