  New York City, USA - Valley Entertainment has released a US
version of the celebrated album Lullabies from the Axil of Evil, created
by Norwegian producer Erk Hillestead.
Norwegian producer Erik Hillestad was struck by
President George W. Bush's January 29, 2002 speech wherein he launched the now
famous term "The Axis of Evil". He declared that Iran, Iraq, North Korea "and
their allies" were enemies of the United States and the free democratic world.
These countries were labeled enemies. Hillestad felt the stigma that was
attached to the countries pointed out as members of "The Axis of Evil" was just
one side of it. As a result, decided to unite "East" and "West" through
song...through lullabies.
"Lullabies lead us to the deepest and most
fundamental way of communication between human beings. It is where all sharing
of ideas and feelings starts. Between mother and child, between father and
child. It is a universal culture. "- Erik Hillestad.
