I've just been listening to the CD ye sent me, I Am Echo is one of the best songs I've heard for a while. Have ye got two lead singers, because the vocals on that and Progress sound really different to those on say; Prayers Over Static?
Alright matee. Thanks very much for coming to watch us tonight mate.. Hope you enjoyed our set. We'll have to sort something out sometime soon, we haven't played together yet!
