After 25 years of working with various artists Johannes Maria Knoll decided to step into the front row to release his first instrumental guitar-album titled "transcended".

He is joined by two incredible musicians: Christian Eigner on drums and Gerald Schaffhauser on bass.

 

The 17 - mainly rock - tracks pay homage to "The Holy Bible" with all it´s force, it´s darkness, it´s distortion, it´s epic broadness, it´s catastrophies, it´s brutality, it´s treasons, it´s light, it´s cleanness,  it´s philosophy, it´s morality, it´s hope, it´s glory,

it´s power, it´s kindness, it´s wisdom, it´s truth, it´s salvation and it´s

love  

 

 

 

"My attempt was to create my personal soundtrack of "The Holy Bible"

- as I understand it -

After years of searching and floating through life I finally found rest and peace

in God and his son Jesus Christ who came in the flesh.

This record is my testimony!

...and it rocks!!!"
