“It's all about the selections and realizations and understandings and life from the beginning of the inception of the soul up until the baby is born; which is an eternal being in my book, all the way through life. The first thing you hear on the record is the actual sound of an unborn baby heartbeat and that's an actual unborn child's heartbeat right off the bat. So, it's loosely based around all of the lessons that I've learned in my life in chronological order from birth, all the way until the end of this life here on this planet," stated Lillian Axe lead guitarist and principal songwriter Steve Blaze as he discussed the band's recent release "From Womb to Tomb."

It’s catchy,” said Russell Fischer, one of the five singers in the show and a New Jersey native.
