Hey everyone, thanks for checking us out. We really hope you like what you hear. But whether you like us or not, there is only one thing you need to know... we strive to do everything we do for our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. However, we are far from perfect--we'll admit that to anyone. We just want to share the love that Christ gives us with anyone who hears us. Some see Christianity as just another religion in our confused world, but, to us, it is a relationship, it is life, it is love.

ps: For those who believe Christians aren't allowed to have fun, come to a show.

Hello Children!
I (Jay) was talking to Justin a few days ago about the album and whatnot, and it came to our attention that this time last year we were still in the studio. Working on the same album. Pretty frustrating, right?
We actually were not in the studio all year. We left the studio at the beginning of 2007, thinking we wouldn't go back (for various reasons i.e. money), and got rid of what we had recorded during that time, and we are glad we did. Our time out of the studio gave us an opportunity to write new songs to replace old ones, and a chance to aquire new equipment that would ultimately take our studio and live sound to another level. We still wanted to get our music out as quickly as possible, but we didn't want to do a sloppy job.
Finally, we went back to the studio for a little test session, and after listening to the first sounds of "I Am Leonidus" recorded, we decided the studio was where we needed to be. Some times have been slow-going still, but we are working. We've promised and promised times that we'll be done and now it's past Christmas. We said it would be out BEFORE or around Christmas in our last album blog. I'm as disappointed as many of you are that it is not done yet. BUT, we only have one full song left to do. After that, it's album art and duplication. So the hard part is almost over! Thank you for your patience, and pleeeeease don't give up on us!
God Bless
-Jay
ps - The Album was supposed to be called "Last of a Dying Breed" but my friend, Devin, told me that's already the name of a country singers album? That simply will not do. So I'm asking whoever is reading this to give us album names. Who knows, maybe we'll use it!

[MATTHEW 28:16-20]
"Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. Then Jesus came to them and said "All authority in heaven and earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Sprit. And teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you and surely I am with you always to the very end of the age."
It seems that many christians have forgotten this passage in the bible. If we all truly believed in what we say we believe, why not boldy go and proclaim the name of Jesus Christ no matter what the venue or the audience? Should witnessing be only left up to youth ministers, pastors, etc.?
Recently, we have been taking heat for playing shows in places such as bars and other non-christian venues... as if we are entering these places, changing our image, and conforming to avoid confrontation. This is certainly not the case. Was it not our LORD who befriended a hooker? Was it not our LORD who healed two blind men who were rebuked and looked down upon by everyone else?[Mattew 9:27-30] Did the LORD only teach the gospel to people who diligently attended church? No!!! If we do not go into these places and tell people about Jesus, who is going to?
Our Savior loves everyone. He has called us to do the same, and that is exactly what we intend to do. If anyone becomes offended by this statement, then we believe we're on our way to accomplishing our goal and getting people out of their comfort zone. Being a Christian in todays world is not always easy. Many times people will despise what we say. That is why we will enter this spiritual battle ready to fight with Jesus Christ by our side!
[Exodus 15:3]
"The LORD is a warrior, the LORD is his name."
Who's ready to go with us?

Our mission is to present the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the best of our abilities in everything we do (on stage and off). We believe that Christianity is not solely religion,as many do, but about a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Christians are allowed to have fun, and we attempt to show this through our music and example.
