The entire Italian peninsula may currently be on a Government-imposed lockdown due to what we are referring here at ÜRHQ as the “beer bug” (some people obviously aren’t getting enough of it – beer, that is – others clearly have had a bit too much), with transport links to and from the country practically severed.

He would say this album is more of an experience than anything else. It is so much bigger than what he expected and in many ways it somewhat overwhelming.
