December 28, 2017
Okay… first of all, RnS fam… HOW COME NOBODY TOLD ME IRISH DUDES ROSE UP LIKE THIS?! I swear I can’t trust anybody anymore! I see y’all ain’t loyal!

Cy Recommends – Decadent
December 11, 2017
Okay, so here’s the thing. I don’t believe I’ve ever been more offended by a band than I was when I first heard this neo-blues outfit.
