The now-Austin-based (and formerly Dallas-based--frontman Ryan Sambol and his brother, bass player Phillip, are the sons of Bob's Steak and Chophouse owner Bob Sambol) lo-fi garage rockers The Strange Boysare getting all prepped for the March 24 release of its debut LP, The Strange Boys...And Girls Club.

And, as a result, the publicist for the band (which recently got some Rolling Stone love) is all over the place today, pimping out two things: first, the above video for the song "Woe Is You And Me"; and, second, a free mp3 of the song "Heard You Wanna Beat Me Up", which you can go and download right here.

Both are pretty awesome. Well, maybe not the video, but the song, for sure. Although, I think both tracks have been circulating around the web for some time now. Oh well.

Insert your own steak joke in the comments.
