Desert Soul : Artwork and release date announced!
Hello folks !
Finally, we proudly announce the release of the next single, Desert Soul. An 8’40 epic journey that is what we think, our best work to date. This one took over my life for the past few months, as it’s very much like mini songs into one. It is essentially a journey so it made sense to go for swings and roundabouts… some call it PROG !
Hopefully it will make sense ! Here is the artwork and initial release information … more details coming soon.
Press The Axehead Journal Spotify button !
In collabo with Spotify we are now re-shaping all full-track play functionality !
Mixing the new single
The Axehead Journal is currently mixing the new single. “It is an epic one, a journey and It is the kind of music I have longed to make for a while”. says Guigz. Stay Tuned for upcoming release details.

…and as for the lyrics, here they are:
24/7, written & performed by The Axehead Journal
Running down the streets of disaffection
Stunned at the scenes in rolling action
Feel the swirl of emotions
24/7 of manipulation
Here i go, off your cloud, right away I just cant take this anymore
Off you go, 404, not to be found anywhere
Lost for words in meditation
Millions of eyes under medication
Witness the world with apprehension
24/7 of mediation
Here i go, off your cloud, right away I just cant take this anymore
Off you go, 404, not to be found anywhere
Take your sacred cow to the slaughter
An easy path to choose for the master
When it’s all smiles & laughter
Ah, guilty pleasures, ah, guilty pleasures
24/7 yet another one on the run
24/7 yet another one about to burn

Making Waves: ‘Destiny’ inside story
Hi everyone,
Just wanted to let you know that The Axehead Journal’s ‘rock-blog’ has been progressing nicely for the past few weeks since the launch of the new website and the release of the first single.
RIDING TO DESTINY has been well received and judging by the rising number of signups, play count, downloads (a few, yes!), that’s a pretty cool start and a big encouragement for a project that’s done with heart & soul rather than a big budget!
So here, down the Axelab, the ultimate vault for everything Axehead in this world :-) we are feeling pretty good right now and I am pleased to let you know that the next single is now finished and will be announced shortly! the sessions went pretty smoothly and the result is phaat! It will be different and hopefully you guys will dig it…stay tuned.
Another piece of news I have for you: Jan ‘Slayer’ Sleigh and myself did an interview for windsurfer international, which you can read HERE. It is another cool thing that happened this month and will provide you with the story behind RIDING TO DESTINY, and how we did it basically. Plus I just added the above pix with Mr Slayer in action to the Flickr ‘Destiny’ set which is - just & simply - phenomenal!
Thanks very much to all of you for all your great comments and support!
Cheers,
Guigz.

Reviews
“I do enjoy the smoothness to the musical interludes…I like the belief this band has in it’s music…I also found a very pro feel in this tune […] Great track…We really loved the groove in this…Great lead guitar Big drums and an out there vocal make this one of the best tracks we have reviewed to date”. tHe BaByEaTeRs. AUSTRALIA
“I like the intro. It make you feel like your at the beach. I like the guitar coming in the way it did. Very strong intro. I love the beat of the drums. It sounds like a song that could get movie play. Its has little bit scary sound but thats a nice cool edge. I like it. its a head knocker.” Uniq, USA
“The song overall is very solid and professional sounding and I love the direction of the vocals, it’s different from the current sound we all hear today which really caught me by a pleasant surprise…” Bewhahur, USA
“Good production, very balanced with all instruments and vocals. Like the Drum sound [nice and solid ]. Killer guitar solo. A big thumbs up to you guys. I’d love to hear more from you”. ExtremeDream, USA
