Andrés was 18 when "Demo 2012" was released. The biography included in the files is a bit difficult to understand. Basically, because of ongoing problems in Andrés' personal life, he became angry with God and, after discovering black metal, converted to theistic Satanism. He was led to believe that Satan would help him, and get revenge on those who had hurt him before. This changed, when Satan did what Satan does best: betray people. Instead of helping Andrés, Satan attempted to possess his girlfriend, and gave her nightmares about Andrés trying to sacrifice her in a forest. (At this time, his girlfriend didn't know he was even into Satanism.) He met a friend one day who listened to Christian metal, including Christian black / unblack metal. Listening to the music, and feeling deeply betrayed by Satan, Andrés turned back to Christ, and soon after, began this project. A few months later, he changed the name to Blood and Honor.

The band name "luz del mundo" / "light of the world" is taken from Matthew 5:14 and John 8:12.

The letters around the "Star of David" symbol in the logo, spell out "YAHWEH" if you follow the lines correctly.

In the files, the logo is listed as being modified on 12 March, 2012. I'm assuming, then, the demo was released around the same time?

According to the text file, this demo consists of instrumental songs Andrés found online, over which he recorded his own vocals. (The lyrics aren't included in the files.) With this demo, he wanted to find other band members to fill the roles of the instruments: "Andrés logro sacar su primer tema titulado Salvo Mi Vida que en si la letra es de el pero la musica es un instrumental que encontro pero el en si quizo expandir de esta forma su mensaje por ahora hasta que encuentre hermanos que lo quieran ayudar en su proyecto."

The lyrics were improvised, and were not written down anywhere. The basic ideas of each song are written below:
"Salvo mi vida" is Andés' testimony of his conversion to Christ, written in a somewhat abstract manner.
"No tengas miedo" is about encouraging Christians, in the face of martyrdom; reminding them they always have the Lord's protection.

1) Salvo mi vida 5:02

2) No tengas miedo 2:20
