I am addicted......

Tyrrial

the music they've produced i've really liked. looking forward to hearing the stuff

At last the album is near.....


really looking forward to it.The band have bounced back after been forced to change form their original name Babelfish due to some obnoxious norwegian rockers.

Their music so far has been great,and this album is an Ireland only release on their own label,putting their money where their mouth is.

see you in tower saturday.

DO you reckon the album will do well in Ireland ?

There is a market out there,for people with good taste:D ,its just a matter of whether they will hear the band.

Initial reaction from fans and media and would be fans suggest this album is going to go down well.

Im sure their hard work and talent will be the deciding factor.we`ll see how many people like the album,starting friday.......
