We all love fake wind, fake driving and confetti, don’t we? With oversized tiger heads? And ferns? Good, I’m glad we’re all on the same page.

[MP3] Green Pitch: “A Letter of Stone”
Supposedly, Danish band Green Pitch released its most recent album, La Jolla, in April 2009. And I haven’t heard of them until today? What’s up with that, am I right?
