    Citadels – The Chemical Song

    Citadels are set to release their second single The Chemical Song as a Pure Groove exclusive on March 1st. It’s been described as widescreen and spacey and both of these apply but most importantly it is absolutely MASSIVE! You’re going to be hearing a lot from this London band. Even the b-side is top notch.
