I've heard you, Kurt, in an interview, talk about these recordings that you have. And finally, you released it!!! So cool. The band sounds so tight, the video is amazing, and the song... For me, I'm just waiting for more songs and hopefully, a visit from you to Argentina someday. Thanks for the music.
