You must be eagerly awaiting the day that it&#8217;s finally unleashed on the masses?\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nNo problem, I&#8217;m very exited about the album, especially since the process of making it has been so intense and long but of course I&#8217;ll be relieved when it&#8217;s unleashed. Last year was very productive for me and the band, but also very though.\u00a0 Changing record label, writing a lot of material, recording the album and also playing a lot live on new grounds in Italy, Germany and Switzerland.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8216;New Religion&#8217; delivers a more &#8220;arena\/stadium&#8221; rock sound than &#8216;Loud Minority&#8217;, which could loosely be described as more &#8220;glam&#8221;. Was this a calculated move by yourselves to try and distinguish yourselves a little bit from the abundance of glam bands in Sweden, or was this just the natural evolution of the band?\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nWell, we&#8217;ve been focusing on the songwriting first and foremost, but yes, arena rock is what we set out do. Not only to distinguish\u00a0&#8220;LIXX&#8221;\u00a0from other bands of today&#8217;s scene, but finding ourselves. Personally, my inspiration comes from bands like; Aerosmith, Guns \u2018N&#8217; Roses, Def Leppard and so on. For me, as far as the way\u00a0&#8220;New Religon&#8221;\u00a0sounds, it feels very natural.\u00a0The first album\u00a0&#8220;Loud Minority&#8221;\u00a0contains songs from a much wider time period, some songs are over six years old and that is the biggest disparity between the two albums i think.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You are now on the roster of Frontiers Records who these days are pretty much THE home of melodic\/hard rock. Was this seen as a\u00a0 necessary step to take for worldwide domination?\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nYeah, of course. With\u00a0Frontiers Records\u00a0backing us up and believing in us we&#8217;ve really gotten a huge energy boost. It&#8217;s been making us stronger and I feel real good about us working together.<\/p>\n<p><strong>From a song point of view, the band has certainly evolved with this album being a very consistent affair and offers a bit more diversity in comparison to &#8216;Loud Minority&#8217;. A couple of my favourite songs are &#8216;Children Of The Cross&#8217;, &#8216;Blame It On Love&#8217; and &#8217;21 Till I Die&#8217;.\u00a0 What are your personal thoughts on these 3 songs and any interesting studio experiences you can share when recording these tracks?\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\n&#8216;Children Of The Cross&#8217;\u00a0is one of my favorites too. What I really love about that song is the lyrics, I think it&#8217;s amazing what Danny alone managed to put together there. It&#8217;s a very\u00a0pretentious song, a sad tale about child abuse coming from not only Christianity, but religion overall. One part of the lyric I especially like is;\u00a0&#8220;Love taken, God forsaken, Failed by the on they relied on, They are they children of the cross..&#8221;\u00a0Most importantly, this is the only song in the song bank of Crazy Lixx that I really can call timeless to one hundred percent.\u00a0&#8216;Blame It On Love&#8217;\u00a0is just a great, catchy, softer kinda song with an amazing verse, the chorus is strong but the verse is fantastic. I can&#8217;t say much about \u201c21\u201d, it&#8217;s a good hard rock song. During the recording of &#8216;Blame&#8217;\u00a0I used a lot of different guitar stuff like a really old Fender amp, probably from the mid 70&#8217;s, sounded awesome and you can really hear it in the verses playing against another guitar going through a &#8216;rockman box&#8217; the first amp-simulator ever made, together it sounds real cool.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Whilst Danny is largely the chief songwriter, I also notice that you share a few songwriting credits. How much input did the rest of the band have into the evolution of the songs on &#8220;New Religion&#8221;?\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nEveryone votes when we pick out the finals but during the songwriting process it&#8217;s Danny and me working but when done&#8217; with a song we play them a rough demo and get feedback from Luke and Jo\u00e9l. Luke is often more aggressive then Joey giving it, hehe. Me and Danny have been working in many different ways, some alone and some together. Starting with sometimes a riff, sometimes a cool lyric thing, a melody or sometimes a whole part. But there were over twice as many songs on the list when picking out the finals.<\/p>\n<p><strong>From a lyrical point of view, where does the band\/Danny draw most of it&#8217;s inspiration?\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nI don&#8217;t really know where he gets it. He&#8217;s without a doubt a great lyric-writer, I think he&#8217;s the best songwriter I&#8217;ve ever worked with. Those songs I&#8217;ve been a part of (lyricwise) there&#8217;s been more then one side to it ending up the way it has, the song\u00a0&#8216;Rock And A Hard Place&#8217;\u00a0is a song about never giving up, an insight look on our bands struggle, basically a rock n&#8217;roll lyric.\u00a0&#8216;Voodoo Woman&#8217;\u00a0Is more of a mystic, sexual story told from a narrator with anxiety up his throat, this song is about a woman with the strongest ability of attraction, beyond magic so.. Vodoo hehe,\u00a0 I always been fascinated by african beliefs in witchcraft and voodoo so had to write a song about it.\u00a0&#8216;What Of Our Love&#8217;\u00a0is based on real life ,real events and stuff I&#8217;ve been through so not all the songs are you know, fiction.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chris Laney once again produced the album and even more so than &#8220;Loud Minority&#8221; every song sounds MASSIVE and very polished. What were the instructions to Chris going into recording?\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nWe made pre-recordings of not all the songs, but almost every song just to fill his head with &#8220;Lixx&#8221; hehe. We just explained that we wanted a bigger sound, heavier in a way and he made it happened.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/Crazy-LIxx-New-Religion.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-4202\" title=\"Crazy LIxx - New Religion\" src=\"http:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/Crazy-LIxx-New-Religion-300x298.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"298\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/Crazy-LIxx-New-Religion-300x298.png 300w, https:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/Crazy-LIxx-New-Religion-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/Crazy-LIxx-New-Religion.png 353w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><strong>Speaking further of Chris&#8217;s involvement, how much influence does he actually have on the song structures themselves?\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nOn this album, almost non at all, but on\u00a0&#8220;Loud Minority&#8221;\u00a0I think he did allot.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What was the significance of calling the album &#8220;New Religion&#8221;?\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\nWe felt that there was a new line-up, new partners, new music, a new (on some level) sound, and\u00a0&#8216;New Religion&#8217;\u00a0suited that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Andy, you weren&#8217;t part of Crazy Lixx when Loud Minority was recorded.

Well, allot of people have been inspiring me not only guitarists, but players like Richie Kotzen, John Norum, Yngwie Malmsteen, and Slash of course have always been a big inspiration. Other then guitarists, Steven Tyler is my number one but other then rock musicians it varies from Lady Gaga to Django Reinhardt.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Heres a chance to gaze into your crystal ball and make three\u00a0predictions.
