    I was browsing through an old Hit Parader magazine, and saw an advertisement for a band called 'Ra'. I then proceeded to search them up on google, myspace, etc, and it seems as though they're coming back out with a new album. They've also released a new track recently: 'Broken Hearted Soul'.

    They're not too shabby. I have to admit that at first, they kind of reminded me of Disturbed, but they're also different in many, many ways. Not one of the most significant or diverse bands that I've ever come across, but I think that the new track is worth a listen.

    Ra has been around for a little while. Their song "Do You Call My Name" had some decent success a few years ago, it's a really good song. I really like the way their lead singer, Sahaj, uses middle-eastern influences. Their two albums are good, and their live album isn't too shabby either. I'll definitely check out the new one when it hits.

    Ra is fucking awesome. Their debut album "From One" is one of my favorite albums. Their follow up "Duality" wasn't as good as the first, but still awesome. And they put on the best live show I've ever seen.

    I own their "From One" album. The song "Violator" made me a fan. Good stuff. I never did get into their newer material though.

    Their cover of "Every Little Thing" is one of the best covers I've ever heard.

    So what do you guys think about their newest track. Personally, I think it's pretty damn good. Just spent most of the day listening to their previous albums.
