Broken Anchor

I came across this band from California a few weeks ago, and I really like them.  Listen to this song.  If you don't like it, there might be something wrong with you.  It's pretty straightforward, relatively mellow rock, with really nice harmonies and lots of instruments.  The lead singer has an awesome voice...it's interesting and hard to describe, but works really well.  And he has a sweet tattoo all down his right arm.  The group recently released a cover of that old school 90's song that everyone remembers, Flagpole Sitta.  For the love of music, listen to it as soon as you can.  It's incredible how the tone of the song is so vastly different from the original...the Broken Anchor version is extremely dark and brooding.  Pure genius, in my opinion.  I must have watched the video at least a dozen times in the last couple of weeks.  The group doesn't have any music on grooveshark, but you can download their EPs (entitled Broken Anchor Vols. 1, 2, and 3) for free on their website.  I recommend doing that.  I think Volume 3 just came out.
