Jerusalem decided to start their own studio and went to the London
and bought some gear from the band "10 CC". Jerusalem
purchased a 32+24 track mixing console, Soundtracks CM 4400 and
a 24 track tape recorder, Soundcraft 760 and some other stuff.

This record was remade and remixed for the US market in 1988 and
released by Refuge Records that same year. It was banned by several
record stores in Scandinavia for its album cover (painted by Rolf
Jansson of Norway).
The title
song "Dancing on the Head of the Serpent" was #1 on
the CCM charts for several weeks. "Rebels of J.C" and
"Plunder Hell, Populate Heaven" were on the same charts
as well during that time. In 1988, "Dancing on the Head of
the Serpent" was also a Dove Award nominee for the "Metal
song of the year" in the USA. A video was made from the title
song for television. It was produced in Uppsala/Stockholm. Reidar
replaced Dan who decided to stay in Sollebrunn when the band moved
up to Uppsala, Sweden. |
