You can survive anything. You can survive a life without luxuries, without relationships, religion or Christianity. But you don't truly live until you've made that commitment and that vertical connection that says, "This is why I'm here." The Need to Feel Alive .....

Forever Changed is a band that feels what it sings about. The members of this young band have already found their answers as to why they're here and they share that knowledge on the release, on the stage and in their day to day lives.

Drummer Nathan Lee calls the band's national debut release more than just good music. "Dan's lyrics are all about challenging people to be more than luke warm Christians." Dan Cole (lead singer, guitar) adds, "My challenge, (as the lyricist), was to at least have one song that the listener could put themselves into...not just relating in an ambiguous, generic way, but really feeling it and really translating it to something that touches their heart, rather than just hearing a feel good song. We don't want people to be aimlessly living; aimlessly walking through life with it just being a day to day grind. Stand for something. Have a passion about something."

This is a band that honestly wants their music to do more than simply provide good, clean entertainment. They want their listeners to get something from the songs that will help them do more than survive life. "Use the songs to see what, in your own life, is hindering you from experiencing everything that you can, and live to the fullest of your ability. Take the record to heart. Don't just think 'wow, these are cool jams'", remarks Tom Gustafson.

Strong words from a strong group of Christians with a strong and solid message. Forever Changed ... forever growing and definitely feeling alive!
