Janne(g), Jussi(b) and Antti(d) had already played together for some years but the previous band projects had come to the end of their roads due to reasons unremembered.
”The triangle” still kept on training in the same band facility, made possible by the city of Kouvola (greetings to ”Lalli”), for some time and worked on some new material.
In the fall 2001 Andy(voc) be ginned training in the same facilities with his other project and the two bands had same co-operation during the years 2001, 2002 and 2003.
The growing hunger of a new band led to a search for a second guitarist and a keyboardist. Janne, Jussi and Antti already knew Jani(kb) and Matti(g) from earlier times and asked them to join the band somewhere between the time of late-fall 2002 and early- spring 2003. The two new artists quickly purchased their places with convincing control of their instruments and the kind of attitude the original members were going for. So this group of five trained few times during the spring and Andy visited in vocals a couple of times.
Andy had the intention to do vocals at Opistorock2003 (a live-act-band-meeting arranged every year by the city of Kuusankoski) in his other band ("Hollow Ground" at the time) but due to an unfortunate accident to the ”HG’s” guitarist Robi the couldn’t perform in Opistorock2003.
Because of the damned situation with ”HG” Access Beyond’s boys decided to fill in the space with Andy singing the lead vocals although there was only about three weeks time for training and writing lyrics and so on…
Unfortunately the posters, flyers etc. of Opistorock2003 were already in the press so ”AB” performed their first live act under the name ”Hollow Ground” in 14th of July 2003…
…and the story continues…

Light From Below
Access Beyond Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
His true son was I
But I pushed myself for the door
And the devil will break my chain
With the world of mine the light and the hope is dying
It's like needles through my skin
But I'm still dying
You see the darkness comes up above
And the light from below
I'm being overwhelmed by this
I should just pass by
But I pushed the unchained floor
An illusion revives my name
With the world of mine the light and the hope is dying
It's like needles through my skin
But I'm still dying
It is the two worlds of mine colliding
You see the darkness comes up above
And the light from below
I've crawled to my end
Hold me in silence
Belief so strong
In birth now gone
With the world of mine the light and the hope is dying
It's like needles through my skin
But I'm still dying
It is the two worlds of mine colliding
You see the darkness comes up above
And the light from below
The lyrics of "Light From Below" by Access Beyond offer a portrayal of the inner turmoil the persona is facing with the two worlds they find themselves entangled in. The persona reveals their knowledge of God's real name as well as their status as His son, but their desires have led them astray from His will. They feel trapped between the light and the darkness in their world, and the two are clashing, causing their hope and strength to wane. The persona is fighting within themselves, but cannot seem to find a lasting solution as their belief has been lost.
The imagery of needles describes the pain and pressure the persona feels as they struggle with their reality. They are overwhelmed by the desire to push the limits and the temptations that come with it. The struggle is apparent throughout the song as the persona is caught between the two worlds that are battling inside them. They are conflicted, and the light from below is the only thing keeping them from being consumed by the darkness that engulfs them. Despite the pain, the persona is still fighting to find peace and purpose while facing their inner demons.
Overall, "Light From Below" is a captivating song that speaks to the universal experience of wrestling with one's spiritual identity. The lyrics are cryptic, but the moving instrumentation conveys a sense of yearning and desperation. This song acknowledges that the human condition is marked by inner darkness and light, and we must decide where we want to stand in that battle.
