Silver Lioning - Ure Thralll goes so low with this assortment of Trance-inducing memory-evoking melodies to remind us of friends long sins passed A Hypnotic Synaesthesia between technology and dreams
comprised of Synths mellotrons and spaced guitars weaving together the Silver LIoning in the memories we somehow mist along the way.
