“For me I think the concept is more to do with when you add ‘un’ as a prefix, when you add ‘un’ in front of a word, you actually look at it and gain a new perspective on the word and it has a different meaning. So for me ‘Unimagine’ is to kind of deconstruct where you are and build […]

Look at bands like Stryper who have always maintained their beliefs, and I’m not scared to say that I caught a Stryper bible at one of their shows and I dug that. […]
