Across the Earth


Across the Earth: Tear Down the Walls is the name for the 11th Hillsong United album.
The album recording took place during three different nights, including a studio session for one of the songs. Four of the songs on the album were recorded in 2008 during the annual EncounterFest at the Hillsong Convention Centre in Sydney, Australia and the other seven songs were recorded in 2009 during two different nights. The first one on 1 March 2009 at Hillsong Convention Centre and on 13 February 2009 at The Hub Auditorium, Hillsong Church. The difference in this project is in the song "Soon", that was recorded at Studios 301 in Sydney, Australia, with a choir and mixed with the live songs.
The album package comes with no booklet, a concept to sustain the idea of "Tear Down The Wall", in which the CD was totally visible though the case.
It was released in Australia on 9 May 2009. The album reached No. 22 on the ARIA Albums Chart.
Originally a two-part project, the plans were later scrapped.
