      I am seriously praying for you Erik. I agree with you 100% I only discovered this band a few months ago because I was looking up this song. So glad for CZcams (for once) I was fortunate enough to see them in Houston last month. My favorite band now. I hope you get to see them, if not... you will hear them up there brother.

    Just discovered these guys on CZcams this past summer. Then I found out they were scheduled to play in my home town, Montreal last March 11th 2020. The same day Montreal went on lockdown for Covid. Not sure if that show took place. I hate the thoughts of bands like this playing live shows in my city and not even knowing about them. They would have to carry me out after a show like this. I would DIE to see this live in a small club or venue.
