The Redemption Song are awesome dudes.

caseyfuckingjones 3/25/2005 10:19:54 AM

that one guy in war of ages looks pretty serious with the bandana covering his mouth. i don't think i'd be able to keep a straight face if that dude was in my band.

xscottx 3/25/2005 10:38:59 AM

Bandana? Oh god. Where?

xscottx 3/25/2005 10:40:40 AM

holycitybradley 3/26/2005 10:55:40 AM

They only get bumped to Facedown Records if they sell enough records on Strikefirst... Pyramid marketing scheme. Genius!

eyesofeternity 3/29/2005 12:20:31 PM
