Hey, I've just discovered your band. Your music is really amazing. "Prelude" is the first and only record I've bought on iTunes, so it's to say that you rock. Your songs are pleasant to listen. But "Friend for a While" is... woooow. Are you bringing out a new album soon? (The 2nd I'll buy on iTunes ^^, or will it be available physically in Switzerland?)
