These 3 songs were the last 3 songs we wrote (and played)before the band breakup. They were our best songs, hands down, and we never had a chance to record them in the studio. Enjoy. 

The sound quality is weak because they were recorded on VHS video camera and then converted to digital. 

Watching And Waiting (Live In Lancaster)

Is Nothing Sacred Anymore  (Live At Scoochs)

Bitter Harvest (Live At The Iroquois)

This song was from our second Demo tape ("A grave mistake"). This song was controversial and many in the Christian music industry misunderstood the lyrical intent of this song (which was clearly presented by the Scripture references in the liner notes). This song was written from a perspective of the Scripture Matthew 7:21-23, "Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter. Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness." 

When we used the word saints, it was written in "quotation marks", but of course you can't "see" quotation marks when you are "listening" to a song! The primary writer for this song was Stacy Puckett.

Overdrive - When the 'saints'

Probably the best (and most popular song) off of our first Demo (Self titled). Find our songs on iTunes. Find our performance vids on YouTube. Find our band on Facebook & Myspace. 

Overdrive - Living Sacrifice

One of the songs off of our first Demo (self-titled). This was a creative lyrical response to those who at the time were coming against "Christian heavy metal" for a myriad of reasons (none of them really legit; and many critics coming from within the "church"). The chorus is a reference to Mark 2:17, in which Jesus states, "And hearing this, Jesus said to them, “ It is not those who are healthy who need a physician, but those who are sick; I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners.” Primary writer for this song was Stacy Puckett.

Overdrive - Mark My Words

This is one of the songs from our Second Demo "A Grave Mistake." It tells the story of one person's journey from the Kingdom of Darkness to the Kingdom of Light and how God rescued them from themselves. Primary writers for this track were Joe McLaughlin and Stacy Puckett.

Overdrive - Standing In Line

This is one of the songs off of our first demo (self-titled). This song was a response song to "Stairway to Heaven" by Led Zeppelin. The primary writer for this song was Joe McLaughlin. Guest lead guitarist for the solos was Greg Albert from Radford, Va. (of note: the rhythm guitar track got lost during the solo section of the song during the mastering)

Overdrive - You Need a Friend

This song was from our second demo (A Grave Mistake). It was written from the perspective of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, praying to His Father (The High Priestly Prayer in John 17). The symbolism of the Chorus is inspired from the homes who would light a candle in the window, until the Sailor returned (...to guide them). 

The primary writer of this song was Doug Levy. Transposed from keyboard to guitar by Joe McLaughlin. Some musical additions (guitar parts) and arrangements by Stacy Puckett.
