Also, the quoted text above comes from Sunspot's promo material.nicholabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12057617454665362026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6365364965833913481.post-65139503638226923752010-10-28T21:16:43.223-07:002010-10-28T21:16:43.223-07:00The sample tune is nice...but methinks New Wave ra...The sample tune is nice...but methinks New Wave rather than post-punk would be the better label.icasticohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08410014613179918959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6365364965833913481.post-75935711870509452232010-10-28T20:24:08.669-07:002010-10-28T20:24:08.669-07:00Bless you, Nick!
