My favorite band for 5 years now, with catchy rhythms and realistic words that allow me to escape from the real world ...
I wanted to make it known.
Me, from the first musical notes, I fell in love :)

Thank you Destiny for sharing this with us. I've added some videos (the one named Destiny, of course and one with French subtitles, so we can understand the lyrics!)     Mrs P.
