Some years ago I went through a period of deep anxiety and depression. Amen 1 was dwelling a lot on these feelings and ideas. I wrote the songs on Amen 2 at a time when I first started to feel that this period was maybe coming, or already had come to an end.\n\n\"It was also at those times when I realised that my lifelong companionship with God came to a conclusion that He, who once meant everything to me, no longer existed. These were the core ideas how Amen 2 came to be.\" http://bit.ly/2ovAoNb\n\nMore from this incredible artist here: https://mikkojoensuu.bandcamp.com/\n\nListen for the major-to-minor shift in this epic song; it's stealthy, but gorgeously done, and hearkens a dreamy whole shift in the song.", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
