Interview at GIGA TV

To promote the new album "The Interzone Mantras", EMI Germany organized this interview with the German issue of NBC´s GIGA TV - a channel for computer teenies. Non of the views had a clue who TTP were and so that had to answer stupid questions like "Where is Canada" or "Who is the best Bond?". The band took the whole situation with a good sense of humor. (Side note: this was the last promotion EMI Germany did for the band - after that, they switched the German record label)
