The Crash
Still Alive

Warner (Finland)

WE SAY

Another distinctive and massively enjoyable track from the latest great band out of Finland to garner international attention (we featured Star last month). This is from their current album - their next will be under a new deal and will surely see them capitalise on their mainland Europe success with UK and US releases.
