Kram review by rob:) To begin with, .:Kram:. kick off with the monster that is "A kind of rapture". this is an outburst of an extreme nature, gradually building up to be the ultimate climax of all your senses..... then there are a mixture of songs including "moon gods" and "the messenger". these are more lighter songs but all of them have incredible riffs which will blow your mind.. And to end the night is "Sun Gods"... a wonderfully beautiful song which creates the sense that you are part of the amazing music...you almost feel at one with the song!!!
Next gig at Trash a.k.a the mixing tin in Leeds... 2nd May 2008.... see you there people.
