(2) INJA was originally born in the fall of 2003 in the northern part of Sweden. Formed by the two brothers Sami and Tomi, the whole idea was to start a band that would push themselves further then any of them had done with previous bands. The result was a massive collection of songs being written in very short time. Erica joined the band early 2004 after Tomi had met Ericas boyfriend who was a old childhood friend. Tomi told his friend about this new project INJA and that we were in desperate need of a singer. A few days later Erica recorded the song "As me", of course there was no question about it, she was the missing piece that would make this work.
Many tags and genres can be used to describe this young band from LuleΓ₯, Sweden. Like many very talented, top female vocalists of today, Erica sings with a style that is uniquely her own and not easily copied. The entire band is a well meshed collection of disciplined artists. They released a Demo Album of songs and it is available here on last.fm and their website.
They are friends and been touring with another Swedish band "Machinae Supremacy".
INJA has signed a record deal with "TracksOnPeak" records. full length album out q1 2007.

Inja Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We invite every human cause youβ²re worth it
Need a safe zone this one perfect
Fully equipped it's legit with a purpose
Ha the sanctuary of worship
We invite every human cause youβ²re worth it
Need a safe zone this one perfect
Fully equipped it's legit with a purpose
Defying gravity thoughts flow naturally
Something inside lost control of my sanity
It's Possibly the obstacles that tackled me
Left my heart screaming for sanctuary or amnesty
I breathed in casually
Controlled my agony
Rise like a titan out of travesty
We only fight ourselves thatβ²s the calamity
That causes catastrophe
The warning signs there
Yo whereβ²s the cavalry
Launch and attacking speed
Heroes die for the cause that's the tragedy
We manipulate rapidly
Sell our souls irrationally
Lost in a process of savagery
So be a warrior but valiantly
Hold your guard up standardly
The day to day can kill of all your phantasies
So find a safe place to face reality
Yo the sanctuary of worship
We invite every human cause youβ²re worth it
Need a safe zone this one perfect
Fully equipped it's legit with a purpose
Ha the sanctuary of worship
We invite every human cause youβ²re worth it
Need a safe zone this one perfect
Fully equipped it's legit with a purpose
We will not be held responsible for any hearing impairments
Or damage caused to you by excessive exposure to this sound
The ultimate in care package
If your heart it minds been left damaged
Or if your body feels weak from some next savage
I want to show you all a next challenge
But we canβ²t make the past vanish
We can fill voids with no baggage
Leave a clean slate that's so lavish
To purify and manage let your caged bird fly and see passions
The sanctuary of worship
The sanctuary of worship
The sanctuary of worship
The sanctuary of worship
The sanctuary of worship
We invite every human cause you're worth it
Need a safe zone this one perfect
Fully equipped itβ²s legit with a purpose
