God I'd love to see YCNI:M back in action
Nothing against the automatic though. It'll be interesting to see what Paul Mullen can bring.
Shit band, shit name for a song, shit song.
I love YCNI:M, and I'm still pretty gutted that Mullen didn't go on to do something else as a frontman, rather than become a member of this awful awful band
^ this
though I haven't heard the new automatic song.
Presumably
that's where you sourced your username?
I like it,
although i'd much prefer it if Mullers was singing lead vox.
