Vitro!
Seriously, I cannot believe these guys have it so incredibly hard with getting known across the world, how few listeners there are even at a place like last.fm. They definitely need more exposure. Vitro are my spezis, in a way, the proof in my playlist that I will go frigging crazy in order to find a song I love, and be rewarded.
