After seeing free and New Guy discuss this group recently I picked up the most recent album, Arrow, on a whim. This record is kick butt and I will being working my way back through their albums in the coming weeks.

The opening chords to "The Mountain" rock.
I'm with free, NG and hitman - good stuff here. You can get this song for free if you sign up for their mailing list. Small price to pay in my estimation.
Oh how I love this band... I would definitely recommend the rest of their catalog.
All This Time is the album I find myself coming back to the most. The songs are so catchy that I still can't believe that they didn't become huge after it came out. The Mountain is consistently great as well, and as Andrew said, really starts with a bang. Stairs and Elevators has a more raw, unpolished sound, and because of that it rocks a little harder than their other albums. It can be uneven at times, and to be honest some of the songwriting isn't quite there yet, but it's my favorite one to crank all the way up.
I just noticed that I said Andrew instead of Mags. I apologize, force of habit. I'm still new here!
I can't remember if it was Mags, New Guy, or DG that turned me on to the HB a while back, but they get the credit, not me.
Now I know how Earl Battey felt.
If I had been here, I would have given you full credit.
I learned about them from someone else here, it appears Bootsy, so it wasn't me. Just count me among the happy converts.
these guys were just on Letterman. crazy!
