HORSE the Band ist eine experimentelle US-amerikanische Hardcore-/Metalcore-Band aus Lake Forest, Kalifornien. Die Band verwendet Synthesizer, um einen Sound zu erzeugen, der an den von alten Nintendo-Konsolen erinnern soll und den sie als Nintendocore bezeichnet.

In drei Songs der Band gibt es Hinweise zu bestimmten Nintendo Spielfiguren: Cutman aus dem NES-Spiel Mega Man in dem Song Cutsman; Birdo, einer der Endgegner aus Super Mario Bros. 2 in dem Song Birdo; Nemesis aus dem Spiel The Legend of Zelda in dem Song Pol’s Voice. Laut dem Sänger Nathan Winneke beziehen sich jedoch nicht alle Songtexte auf Nintendo-Figuren: “[...] There are only three of our songs which reference Nintendo characters. I was reading some review of our new album and this guy was trying to link all our songs to Nintendo, I was like, 'What the fuck!?'” (Nathan Winneke)

Nach dem Ende der momentanen Tour mit den Bands The Fall Of Troy, Poison the Well und Criteria, ist HORSE the Band ab dem 28. Mai 2006 mit Gatsby's American Dream, Portugal. The Man, und Forgive Durden unterwegs. Die Band plant eine große Welttournee mit Auftritten in 40 Ländern, die sie komplett selbst und mit Hilfe ihrer Fans organisieren wollen. Diese Tour soll im März 2008 starten.
