"Outside My Window" by the ReMINDers featured in upcoming film

When compiling our 2008 year end lists last year, we clumsily overlooked and left ReCollect, the ReMINDers' stellar debut, off our list. Our bad. Really.

The chosen song, "Outside My Window," is featured on ReCollect and a video was filmed for the track last month. Check out the goodness after the jump.
