AURORA is taken

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

It's one of the few songs I love from the album, their first two are definitely better.

Silent Alarm was brilliant, A Weekend in the City was solid (Hunting For Witches is an absolute tune with an outstanding riff), but they fell away dramatically after that.

Post-round update! (521)

• Cdog71 cops his 3rd DQ, and the 2nd time in a round I've hosted.
• NaturalDisaster finally made it to 300!
• The Jesus reaches 30 billies! It has to be said, that's a fair effort, especially in 209 contests.
• MWPP got her 16th podium and her first since round 478!
• GreyCrow's 50% podium to win conversion rate has been broken with a moral win. That was his 53rd podium.

More to come.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

• Loonerty won his 25th contest along with getting his 63rd podium!

That's it!

Its a cracker isn't it? Such a powerful song too

Wasn't a bad song. Thought it was the lead singer from Holy Holy to begin with.
