HORSE the Band is gearing up to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their 2005 album The Mechanical Hand with a tour kicking off this April. They’ll be joined by Lagrimas, Flake, and Othiel on the trek, presented by our friends over at Lambgoat. The band is excited to revisit the album that defined their sound and is looking forward to bringing it live for fans old and new stating:
“We first appeared at Bullstock ’99, El Toro High School. Next we played lunchtime at our rival high school, and we fucking sucked. Eventually, after practicing our instruments and scales and studying music theory, someone gave us some money to record an album. We released The Mechanical Hand in 2005, introducing the beloved characters of Lord Gold and Manateen and many other such things.
Over time, as individuals we struck out to seek our fortunes in the industries of beer brewing, the custodial arts, high-tech startups, and groceries. Some of us reproduced. Now we are here, with renewed vigor, to celebrate together the 20th anniversary of The Mechanical Hand in 2025. We look great for our age. We are going to play every song. It’s going to be hard.

On this redemption tour, we will net out our utility value to the universe, after being bad attitude nerds for 20 years.
Lord Gold and Manateen are waiting for you.”
