Repentance

Repentance is more than just a fine word. It has a deeper meaning than just a feeling of regret it also means a different way, the way chosen by a few. Quality in everything is one of the band's main basis and a part of creative concept. Music style is determined to be a dark-rock. Rock as a musical side of concept. Dark - as a reflection of reality.
