LexiconDon
There’s just summat about triangles… Anyway, lets be serious. LexiconDon‘s first single of their album Pink + Blue is out now. Just got word from Binary last night and time difference, you know, me being in the Uk and them being in sunny LA means that I can’t post this up as soon as I...
