 Fragment King :: Grey Album (INV031)
Mehr als das – Grey Album treibt SchweiЯ und lцst Zorn, setzt Krдfte frei, sowohl in den gediegeneren Stьcken mit runtergestuftem Tempomat als auch in den wьtenden, rasanten Krachmaschinerien, in die der Fragment King ziemlich defragmentiert beinahe wahnsinnige Energieausbrьche eingebaut hat.
