Lovewar burst on to the Christian music scene in 1990 when they released a demo that caught the eyes and ears of famed producers John and Dino Elefante. That would lead the band to their first record deal on Pakaderm Records and the release of the now legendary album ‘Soak Your Brain’.

‘Soak Your Brain’ would be widely received as one of the best Christian rock albums of all time. The album was even named one of the top Christian rock albums of all time by Heaven’s Metal Magazine that placed it number 47 out of 100.  
But alas, like many of the bands from that era that should have been huge, the music industry changed spitting out a lot of those very talented bands much like Lovewar. Lovewar would never go on to record a sophomore effort and the album and the band went off in to obscurity never to be heard from again, until now! 

The end of 2018 saw the band reform and launch a very successful Kickstarter campaign to release their second album, 25 years later! The band got right back at it featuring all 3 original members and they picked up literally right where they left off. There were 11 songs written back then and ready to go that never saw the light of day that the band dusted off, polished up and recorded for this special project. 

Roxx Records is very excited to be bringing you the brand new sophomore self-titled album from Lovewar! These tracks sound amazing and show the growth and progression of what just might have been all those years ago. Now the world will have a chance to hear what just might have been all those years ago. 

Check out the brand new and debut single entitled ‘Candle’   https://youtu.be/Dc8C2QdXLpo

April 13th on Record Store Day the album will be released digitally worldwide along with a very special limited edition CD pressing. You will want to get your hands on this one, which will prove to be one of the best Christian rock releases of 2019.

An really good album. The music was written as the follow up to Soak Your Brain, so there is a definite continuity between records. Bushong still sounds really good.

I haven't had the opportunity to play mine yet.  I am looking forward to it, though.  I also spent some time remastering their debut for my own purposes so they would sound closer in sound quality.

I had a limited run CD by Lovewar that came out in the late 90s or early 2000s.  It was an album full of demos from the band that were poorly recorded.  I got rid of it because it did sound bad.  I wonder if these are all the same songs, or were those different tracks.

Some of this really makes me think of King's X around the Dogman era. Not a bad thing at all.

I think you're talking about Millenium, alldat. I had that, too, and the sound quality was terrible. I dont think these are those demos. I think those were the demos that got them their record deal.
