So in 2010 the time had come to put on the guitar again and to write some songs. The dream was coming back. Some demos recorded on a small 4-track with a sloppy drummachine were finished soon. The band was completed by AB on bass-guitar and SL on drums, some very fine musicians CL has been knowing for many years.
So now there is salvation AMP, an unsigned independent waverock-band.
The first salvation AMP album titled HIDDEN FACES will be released in September 2012.
CL – guitars, vocals, music, lyrics
AB – bass-guitar
SL – drums
From: Detmold, Germany
Sounds Like: The Chameleons, The Sisters of Mercy, Fields Of The Nephilim, Pink Floyd
Genres: Indie / Wave rock / Gothic rock

Salvation AMP Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
one world away
my make believing
while I'm wide awake
just a trick of light
to bring me back around again
those wild eyes
a psychedelic silhouette
was buried untherneath and
all that I could see was white
my salvation my my
my salvation my my
oh oh you are the snowstore
I'm purified
the darkest fairytale
in the dead of night
let the band play out
as I'm making my way home again
glorious we transend
into a psychedelic silhouette
I never meant to fall you but I
was buried untherneath and
all that I could see was white
my salvation my my
my salvation my my
my salvation my my
my salvation my my
oh oh oh my salvation my my
my salvation my my
my salvation my my
my salvation my my
In Salvation AMP's "Salvation," the singer describes their experience of falling in love with someone unexpectedly, finding salvation in their presence. The lyrics use vivid imagery to describe this feeling, such as "you are the avalanche/one world away/my make believing/while I'm wide awake," reflecting the overwhelming force of love and its ability to transport someone to another reality. The singer seems to acknowledge that their love may be a trick of the mind, "just a trick of light/to bring me back around again," but this doesn't diminish the intensity of their emotion.
The use of psychedelic imagery - "wild eyes/a psychedelic silhouette" - further emphasizes the almost surreal quality of the singer's love. The repeated phrase, "my salvation my my," reinforces the idea that this love is what sustains the singer, providing a sense of purpose and direction. The song ends with the singer feeling purified and transcendent, as they "let the band play out/as I'm making my way home again," suggesting a sense of renewal and hope.
Overall, "Salvation" is a song about the transformative power of love, and how it can lift us out of darkness and into a brighter world.
