Soulidium's first cd, "Children of Chaos", featured the work of Grammy Award winners Jeff Bova (Michael Jackson, Eric Clapton, Blondie), and Bob Ludwig (Metallica, Led Zeppelin, Nirvana) and was praised by Metal Edge Magazine as being "a heavy impact" cd. AwayTeam.com stated,"I could go on for days about how this band is out to lead the charge in a full-blown Active Rock Radio takeover", and a reviewer from RollingStone.com stated that "Soulidium's 'Children Of Chaos' is one of the best buys any rock fan can make. Period".
Soulidium is comprised of Singer-Songwriter Michael McKnight, Guitarist Shadow Morte, Guitarist Spyder Zero Prime, Drummer Danny Cayocca, and Bassist Ilyn Nathaniel. Having toured and played with legendary bands like Sevendust, Alter Bridge, Nonpoint, and Alice in Chains, Soulidium has developed a reputation for rocking audiences with their powerful performances and elaborate stage shows.
Soulidium's trademark vampire image and aggressive ability to capture fans is bringing justification to the band's bold slogan, "Join the Addiction". Soulidium has appeared on the SAW IV (Lionsgate) Motion Picture Soundtrack (WEA/Warner Bros. Records) with artists like Avenged Sevenfold, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, Sixx A.M., Drowning Pool, & others with their song "Trapped", described by Metal Edge Magazine as the "perfect execution".
Soulidium is now completing their second cd which features the work of legendary rock producers Toby Wright (Alice in Chains, Kiss, Korn, 3 Doors Down) and Shawn Grove (Sevendust, Collective Soul, Matchbox 20). Vocalist Lajon Witherspoon of famed rock band Sevendust has also joined Soulidium on their 2011 cd title track, "Fly 2 The Sun". Lajon describes Soulidium's new cd as being "The key to the box" and 2011 promises to bring fans a whole new reason to Join The Addiction.. SOULIDIUM!

Soulidium Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't apologize to anybody
Love has come and now I'm free to be the real me
And now I see, I see the light
Freed from the night, the sun is rising again
And I feel, I feel alive
It's on my face
If it feels right, it cant be wrong
It's so extraordinary
Break your chains despite their key
You were born to be free
And now I see, I see the light
Freed from the night, the sun is rising again
And I feel, I feel alive
It's on my face
Not far from grace, not far from grace
And now I see, I see the light
Freed from the night
And I feel, I feel alive
Not far from grace
And now I see, I see the light
Freed from the night
I feel, I feel alive
Not far from grace
Not far from grace
In "The Light" by Soulidium, the singer expresses his liberation and realization of his true self after living his life unapologetically. The lyrics suggest that the singer was previously trapped in darkness, but has now been freed from it with the dawn of a new day. He talks about embracing what feels right and breaking free from societal expectations that serve as chains.
The opening lines, "I've lived my life, I don't apologize to anybody" speak to the idea of living life on one's own terms without having to explain oneself to others. This message is reinforced by the lyrics in the chorus that emphasize freedom - both from the darkness that previously enveloped the singer and the constraints that society places on individuals.

I've lived my life
I have experienced my life fully
I don't apologize to anybody
I am not sorry for who I am or what I have done
Love has come and now I'm free to be the real me
Finding love has given me the courage to be my true self
And now I see, I see the light
I have gained insight and understanding
Freed from the night, the sun is rising again
I am released from darkness and a new beginning is starting
And I feel, I feel alive
I am filled with energy and enthusiasm
It's on my face
My emotions are written clearly on my face
Not far from grace, not far from grace
I am closer to being forgiven for past mistakes
If it feels right, it can't be wrong
Following your heart is always the right choice
It's so extraordinary
It is beyond the norm or ordinary
Break your chains despite their key
Break free from limiting beliefs, even if they seem important
You were born to be free
Your natural state is one of freedom and individuality

We thought this deserved an answer. Unlike many other bands, we dont put on a costume to play. What you see is who we are daily, not just on camera. We would rather be who we truly are than play a role to pacify those who are easily offended or who expect a generic image. We have mingled what we love with the music we love and don't believe art should be restricted or forced to suit a sound. Art is free, and so are we. Thank you for your comment.
