The Lights - by All Left Out

Sweet ('cool' sort of 'sweet') song by the New Zealand rockers.
All Left Out is (as mentioned) from Hamilton in New Zealand.  Their music making started in 2002, & in Jan. 2003, they released their first EP, "Retrospect".  Two years later (in Feb.), they released their first LP "Never Say Never".  Extensive touring followed, including in the US, Canada, and even the UK.  They've toured more (including with Family Force 5, Rage Against the Machine, Fall Out Boy, & more big names, too) & have had 2 more full-length albums since; "The Conquest" in 2007, & "We're Alive" in 2009 (all of which were done independently).  I also know that they did much touring, here in Canada at least, with an organization, making stops at high schools across most of Canada (I couldn't find &/or remember which org. though...).  However, on Dec. 15th of 2010, they announced on their Facebook & MySpace pages that it was the end for them; they did one final tour in January of this year (but, on a brighter note, they closed the 'note' off with: "What's next?? We will all still be involved in music in some form, so keep an ear out!").  This song is from "The Conquest".

P.S. The reason why I say "remember" is because my high school was one of those stops.  I just feel like kinda bragging about that. ;)
