Why Neon Cross survives

You know, just recently having had a discussion with one of the other guys about how Neon Cross cycles through a predicable pattern of activities I was set to thinking about why Neon Cross has continued to exist and perform over all these years regardless of our popularity or even the level of activity. Don and I have often joked how Neon Cross never breaks up, we just go on hiatus sometimes.

However this might sound, the key thing for Neon Cross from the very beginning was that we wanted to serve the Lord. We wanted to be availible for use whenever the Lord might want to use us. Being "Rock Stars" has always been fun anytime we were at that level of popularity but that was never the goal. If when the band fell out of popularity that didn't mark the end of the band, just the end of an era. Also, Neon Cross has never been about chasing trends. We all know what we like and sometimes we are, like most of the listening public, totally into whatever the "new sound" is so we'll compose music in that genre. But very often what's really hip at the time doesn't interrest us at all and we're not about to become something we're not in some vain effort to abtain a greater amount of popularity.

As of late, "Old School" metal has come back into vogue and this just might be the right time to release NCII, "The Mystery Album" because acceptance for this material is today stronger than it's been since it was written back in the '80s. But make no mistake. It's not merely "Old School" metal. It's old metal freshly released. We will undoubtedly follow this up with a new release of totally new songs, because that's what we do. We wait on the Holy Spirit for inspiration and write according to the issues of the day. And this material may or may not be "Old School". It might even be modern rock.

Whatever it is, it will be honest and uncontrived and whether or not anybody else is able to dig it the band will not end as a result of any drop off in popularity. We will simply wait on the Lord. And when he opens doors for us to serve him again, that's where we'll be.
