Notable Quotes

❝ In 2006, in fact, they release "I'm Like A Virgin Losing A Child", an electrifying debut album, suspended between sweet and romantic ballads and tracks that draw heavily from guitar-driven indie rock with keyboard inserts; American, of course... but they manage to sound damn European!
