Under My Bed:My_Dear

%%
%%

My Dear Killer. is intend to be listened on (possibly biased) audiocassette, in a parked car by the lake during the last few minutes before being definitely frozen out by the icy blowing wind. My Dear Killer has been for a long time a theoretical band, a theoretical band, all in all, just built over a fragile architecture of dreams, wonders, assumption and hypothesis. And are these more boring or just more tiring?

Some more information available at the band website Killing the killer
