Nearly done with the record

A few things need to be done before our album hits the press...


It will be named: BLOOD COMBINES

Can't wait to be done and share all our music with everyone who cares!!!

Here's one of the lyrics I and Storgaard wrote for one of the tracks:
__________________________________

With Swelled Fists And Broken Neck


Take this heart

I need You now more than ever Lord, please come take my hand

I need You now more than ever, don’t wanna separate our ways
I need You now more than ever, don’t wanna separate our ways and die, die

With swelled fists and broken neck don’t leave me here please take me back
Back to Your garden of… rest! Of rest

Cause I know I’m not the fighter, I know I’m not a hero
I know I’m just like dust, but in Your arms I’m gold
(in Your arms I’m precious gold)

Take this heart make it Yours
Call us back to love
Make us one again

Better is one day with You than a 100 days alone
Better is one day with You than a 100 lonely days
Better is one day with You than a 100 days alone
Rather one day with You than a 100 lonely...

Give me Your eyes
Give me a heart of flesh
I need You now more than ever, don’t wanna separate our ways
With swelled fists and broken neck don’t leave me here please take me back

Blood runs through my veins -
Your love does not run dry -
How beautiful you guys are -
We were born with so much love -
That’s one thing we have in common -

Grace

Faith
Love
Integrity
For eternity

My nephews birthday!!

Jonas Samuel Larsen is 1 year old today and Uncle Andreas is very proud of him!


This is a picture from Christmas morning. I thought that now that I'm the one in this family who's studying kids and their welfare (and homeless people with addicts) I should be the one to give Jonas the most none-correct present for a 10 month old kid :0)

...He liked this gun better than the beer I gave him. He said that Daddy could have the beer :)

Christian Metal in Denmark

The 13th of February 2007 Report:


Things are happening over here. Slowly, but I believe that we’ll soon see a small explosion of Christian Metalheads who want to spread some positive energy and the light of Christ in the often dark sub scenes and -cultures of Denmark.

Barricades just recorded a full length album which will be out in March. I’m sure this will be a landmark for Christian metal culture in Denmark!

Pastor Bob Beeman will come visit my family and I in Denmark this April. I know that the Christian metal heads in this country has so much to learn from Pastor Bob, so this visit of his has also turned out to be a 3 days festival as well. (Sorry, I just couldn’t help it, Pastor Bob:0) )

The very first Christian Metal Festival in Denmark:

The Green Light District Fest will be from 13th to 15th of April and will contain great teaching from Pastor Bob, fellowship, metal cafe, great metal concerts incl. 3 debut concerts from the new hope of Denmark + much more!!

There are a couple of things that need to be in place before we start the big promotion. This will be the start of something very big!

I’m putting up this Festival together with a Danish Christian Metal Community who started less than one year ago. ( www.assaultingvanity.dk ) They do a very good job!

“God Gave Rock n’ Roll To You” – I just want to give some back :0)
