Anchors Aweigh, the Bouncing Souls' sixth studio album, came out on Epitaph on August 26, 2003, and it's a darker ride than How I Spent My Summer Vacation. Bassist Bryan Kienlen had come out of a relationship and poured the fallout into new songs, and the band spent the writing sessions pushing at melodies and rhythms instead of just flooring it.
John Seymour produced, with Kienlen and guitarist Pete Steinkopf as co-producers, at Lakeview Farms in North Brookfield, Massachusetts, and Water Music in Hoboken. Greg Attonito and Michael McDermott rounded out the lineup, and it still sounds like the New Brunswick crew, punk rock and pop-punk with big-hearted choruses, only with the shadows turned up. Critics were generally kind, several singling out the playing, and "Kids and Heroes", "Sing Along Forever" and the title track went out as singles and videos. Then they hit the road hard, through the rest of 2003 and all of 2004, Warped Tour included.
