  • I gave it a go. The audio is kinda all over the place and my playing could be better but what the hell. Enjoy.
    I did it with a lot of help from Boro and Vena. Their channel here: / @borovena4212

Been a huge fan of that band since and I'm always introducing these guys to people I know. Not even one single time did anyone ever say they'd heard of them. Blows my mind.
