Notable Quotes

❝ It is when the music hits you like a whip on the back, forcing you to hold your breath for interminable seconds, when time loses its meaning, when memory takes you away in an ecstatic exaltation in front of a stereo vibrating with sounds you thought you already knew completely, that you realize you are finally in the presence of something truly worthwhile.

❝ Dirty and direct, “Tear You Apart” might be the most famous track.

❝ I couldn't gather much information about this duo... however, I can tell you they supported Depeche Mode... As a reference, that doesn't seem bad to me.
