"Been Down" is probably one of the albums high points. This is my personal favorite track from this album along with "Stand." I just dig the funk and soul vibe of this song. I like it when a band makes an album void of gimmicks or tricks. There's nothing pretentious about this band. Here's a quick promo of the songs from the new album. I couldn't find a good link to the songs and they currently have no videos available for any single off of Ballet The Boxer 1.

Ours new album Ballet The Boxer is a flashback to the 80's stadium rock
The Killers made an attempt for a flashback 80's style stadium rock album with last year's Battle Born, and Ours do much of the same with a thunderous stab at everything grand from 80's pop rock. Their new album Ballet The Boxer 1 takes me on a time warp to the era of U2 and Foreigner with those big rock anthems and bombastic vocals. This album is really easy to listen to. I've had it on repeat in the background through out the weekend and it hasn't gotten old. It really takes me back to my childhood with bands like Foreigner on heavy rotation on the radio. You can see the undeniable similarity in songs like "Sing" and "Stand." This album is available for download ahead of it's release for a pledge of $10.
