(Song Series VIII) - Why I wrote 'Dead N Gone'

I strongly believe that death is just the beginning. Why fear death if we know that we live on? And why fear death when we transfer over to a new and better place, a universe without noone lack? Free at last, maybe? And this song is a comfort to those left behind. Don't be sad, we will meet again.

God Bless!

*****

Standing at my grave look at the beautiful stone 
My life is consumed I am dead and doomed 
As I reflect on my past life I know and I realise 
All those days and nights left a mark on this world

People Ive met along the way encounters taken place 
Success and failures what does it matter now 
My soul is on the line where will I spend my time? 
Do i turn into dirt and sand I may go to the promised land 

Dead and gone don’t miss me when I'm gone 
Dead and gone don’t miss me when I'm gone 

Dont shed tears over me I am finally free I am really alive 
Living in a better place there I feel no pain and shame 
I am always contempted Noone tries to bring me down 
I am a prince and a King

Perfect pitch

It is so easy to get stuck online. But sometimes you find real gold out there. I am taking lessons at a totally awesome vocalcoach and in order for me to progress even further I search for new tools. Just the other day I found this intervall training tool on youtube. I must share it with you. Please enjoy!

Still in startup

So what's going down in the Daevidius camp then? Nothing much really. We are still upgrading the Studio and are on our way to a more heavier sound. This new record will be totally awesome!

God Bless!

(Song Series VII) - Why I wrote 'Judgement Day'

Judgement Day is one of the oldest songs on Daevidius first album 'The Demon and The Angel'. Even though all credits for the song is on the behalf of David Dee Bee Bengtsson; in reality Anders Jönsson did a lot for this song to be as great as it became. This was first recorded on a unreleased demo back in april 2009. The solo is a first take that just came out great!

The lyrics paints a black picture and is poetic in its nature. It is subtile and no in-your-face-lyrics. There are many layers and many views. For example:
- The Guardians watching over us, They are those who pray for us and fight against the unseen evil powers.
- The men of power. Politicians and many others are working for world peace and pay no attention to whoever they make alliances with.
- All evil shall fall. When Judgement is upon us true justice will be declared.
- Messiah is supreme. Jesus Christ ends judgement day in a positive spirit when true peace will come for all.

God Bless!

Raindrops of evil paints the sky black 
Planting seeds of hate in all of us 
Guardians at the wall watch us all 
But for how long will they carry on 

In these times you got to know 
Too many options which path to go 
Writings in the book are coming true
the Lords of the sky know what to do 

O o o o Judgement day 
O o Now the time has come 
O o o o Judgement day 
O o all evil shall fall 

Men of power in unholy leagues 
capture the free lead them into slavery 
proclaim they know the road ahead 
but they can't they just bring you misery 

O o o o Judgement day...

O o o o Judgement day...  

Messiah is Supreme 
Hail the king of kings 
Messiah is supreme 
Messiah is supreme

And so it begins...

Finally, we are starting recording. In the first phase we are working on the drums and bass. Or maybe I start with the synths. There is so much going on right now outside the music so I pray all pieces in the puzzle will fall into place.

And so it begins... First song started tonight is 'Gates of Hell'.

God Bless!

Yet another path tread upon Part II

Tonight yet another path is tread upon. I met up again with an old friend of me, one of the best most skillful guitarists I ever played and recorded with. He laid down some really good solos on the first album, by Daevidius 'The Demon and The Angel. His name is Anders Jönsson. We have not spoken since summer 2012.

Earlier this year it just come to my mind, it might have been God talking; why don't you contact Anders Jönsson and see if there still is some common ground? It took me about half a year before I send him an old style letter. He responded very quickly and tonight we met up. Over a cup of coffee we set the path for the time to come. And if it all fall into place it will truly be awesome! So many good ideas, so many creativity. Let us all praise God with our creativeness!

God Bless!

(Song Series VI) - Why I wrote 'Desert Land'

I believe to grow you have to die. And I don't mean psychically, but spiritually. And die to what some call the flesh. I believe in order to grow some parts of what we think is our personality has to go. And it has to be in accordance to our own will.

When we are in such a Desert Land when everything seems hopeless, there is no future just darkness. We have no hope of nothing ever changes for the better; thats the place we die. Compare with a seed. In order for the seed to became a great tree it has to die. I think in the same way we have to die away from things we think are in our personality and a part of us to become someone great. And not in a arrogant way with pride in it worst meaning.

Therefore; let us walk through the Desert Land believing there is a brighter day day, knowing God knows more than I do and He keeps me safe from harm.

God Bless!

*****

I scan the horizon watching the barren plains 
far in the distance I see a crocked tree 
The wind cries my name as I walk in the rain 
I don't know if there is a future for me 

Desert land 
Walking through desert land 
Desert land 
Living in desert land 

Boots of led and iron my legs are tired and old 
waiting for the son to come on the skies 
But right now I see no light in the dark 
Realise I built a world based on lies 

One of these days the prince of peace will rescue me 
waiting for the day to dawn O Lord set me free 

In my minds eye I dream of a better day 
Thoughts of the mind has been dark of late 
I raise my head high and in my heart I pray 
Help me O God to make it trough today 

Desert land 
Walking through desert land 
Desert land 
Living in desert land 

Desert Land 
No more Desert Land 
Desert Land No more Desert Land
