The Dirge of Ahz (IvyAudio.CarpenterTrombone Demo)

This song is like liquid ambrosia, like bottled lightening, the distillation of joy itself compressed into a 3 minute ear-gasm.  This song will literally make you shit your pants, while it simultaneously changes your life.  You will never be the same after tasting the sweet, sonic elixer that IS this SONG!!!!!
