Skeleton Key

If I was the Comic Book Guy from The Simpsons, I might be inclined to say “Worst Band Name Ever.” It’s just seems too damn clever for its own good. But Skeleton Key on the other hand, frickin’ cool song.

I’m not sure what the tune is about, but I know I like it. Strings, groove, a vocalist with a subtle growl and urgency in his voice (sounds like he’s apologizing for something, just not sure what). Very good stuff here.
