We're falling in a world that's upside down
From the grave through the womb into the light

No believing no faith no worshipping
We follow the knowledge of the heart
Tearing the paroketh apart

When the darkness comes upon us, show us the way, back into the light...

And we love while the world is in flames
We share scars that can't be healed
You and I both know, there's a long way back from hell
But in our hearts we know what no words can ever tell

Are we dreaming?
My love... 
Or did we just wake up?

No salvation in blind faith
No redemption in beliefs
We follow the light that dwells within... 

Oh holy mother, hear our prayers in the silence of the heart
When the darkness comes upon us show us the way back into the light... 

And we love while the world is in flames
We share scars that can't be healed
You and I both know, there's a long way back from hell
But in our hearts we know what no words can ever tell

From the wastelands of the mind
It's a long way back from hell 
From the shadows of the soul
It's a long long way, a long way back from hell

There´s a long way back from hell

There´s A Long Way Back From Hell

Scandinavian popadelic noire wrapped in both plastic and rusty chains... A synthesis between Jodorowsky and Astrid Lindgren... Everything dwells within the visuals of both color and sound, in the timeless story told by the logos within.


just passionate, not professional at all, home studio

My current musical project consists of composing music and tagging other artists, regardless of their genre. In recent years, I've discovered great talents, both professional and amateur, self-taught like myself. I also want to highlight musicians who stand out for their beautiful songs. Thank you to all my followers for believing in me, and I also appreciate the excellent music they create. Greetings to all! One more clarification about the musicians I follow: each author's music fills me with joy and is a source of energy for life!

My new single, "Bad Thoughts In Disguise", is out now!

I also have a new single, "A Crimson Stain", which is out under my other project "LORRIDI"

Don't forget to check out my debut album "LORRIDI" from my new solo project with the same title!!  🤘🤘

Jan Magne Garte is a Norwegian musician and solo artist in the heavy metal and hard rock genres. Born in 1971, he is originally from Surnadal in Møre og Romsdal, but recently moved (as of early 2025) to Hitra.

Born in Kristiansand in the south of Norway in 1971.
In '75 he and his family moved to the small village of Surnadal,and at the age of 16 he had started playing bass in different bands. His last band would eventually grow in popularity and open for some of the most popular Norwegian rock bands at the time.

By the early 2000s Garte had started a band with some of his best friends and expanded his repertoire by writing his own songs, singing and switching from bass to guitar. Around the same time his parental duties would start to take the focus from the music and his career as a musician would take a hiatus for almost two decades. 
Now after all this time, his love for making music has truly rekindled and the old musician has returned. 

All of his music is heavly influenced by the songs of his youth, from genres such as '80s hard rock, heavy metal, thrash, but also taking notes from the next generation of musicians.

Garte also has another solo project under the name LORRIDI.
