Anchor (Birds of Tokyo song)

Sales towards the song counted towards the EP, which peaked at number 23 and was certified platinum in Australia.

So this is homage, bit of a tribute song to the times we didn’t notice how the people we love were really doing.

"[3] Jamie Parmenter from Renowned for Sound said; ""Anchor builds" in with sombre tones and snaps to create images of California embodied in music.

Front man Ian Kenny has really thrown himself in the deep end here, creating a sound that's almost like homage to early 80's American rock.

This is all set against heartbreaking lyrics of chasing ghosts and finding loneliness, creating a track of strange but satisfying presence.
