Ra is a fairly unknown ska/hard/alternative rock band that I happen to like. I think they're really underrated as a group and I just wanted to know if anyone else here knows of them. You don't even have to like them, the fact that you know of them is probably good enough for them. I'm posting about them just because their third album "Black Sun" is coming out soon and my hopes are high.
Songs you may have heard
Do You Call My Name? (Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2003 and Superbowl Pregame)

Got Me Going (Hot Rod soundtrack)
Fallen Angels

Quick Fact: For a short time, Sahaj Ticotin was the world record holder for longest sustained note by a male in a concert, the time was 24 seconds. Inspired, his record was broken by Jan Danielson at 28 seconds, while Usher said that he was interested in preparing his voice for a 100 second note.

Yeah they toned it down since then, in th e second one they don't really do any songs like Fallen Rock Zone or Parole, there a lot more acoustic now and the lyrics are styled for that, a lot more On my Side style and Sky, the new one I think will be more in between the two but closer to the second one.

Ahhh, well it'll be something to check out tomorrow some time, I'd say.
I don't know why, but I really liked Fallen Rock Zone. It was a very...odd song, but I liked it indeed. I'll reserve some more judgment until I check out some of their new songs and post here then, though.
