Moscow Schoolboy
My Sister and The Devil [ Silent Partner Recordings / CD - released 13/Jun/2006 ] "They've created an EP of dark, rusty pop songs, complete with hints of a sinister lyrical atmosphere, laid over lavish pounding drums, razor sharp guitars and keys - this Melbourne trio are one to watch." - Time-Off |
