Anchorhead

Welcome to Mosh Eisley,

About Me

It is a period of crushing riffs. Anchorhead are striking their eight string guitars in a hidden studio but have so far won no victories against the Galactic Empire. During the recording sessions, Bothan spies managed to steal plans for the most crushing metal version of the classic trilogy ever, which has enough power to destroy an entire planet. When completed this ultimate weapon will spell certain doom for this insignificant little band, as the evil lord Darth Lucas (not really, we love you George) will probably dispatch thousands of lawsuit droids into the far reaches of space and sue our arses off.

Check out the video below to see us rocking New Hope and Empire at the Camden Underworld (1 of 4 videos):
