Description/Reviews:

Seven, in diametric contrast, is a hail of bullets: Graves leading bassist Max Gerl, guitarist Colin Cook, and drummer Mike Mitchell (an ex-Clarke bandmate) in a hammering shock of piano-driven riffing, ensemble rush, and hairpin rhythmic turns, mostly in three-minute jolts marked by blitzkrieg solos and the occasional pause for meditative breath. There is the warming balm of Washington’s tenor cameos and Graves’ solo reverie “Fairytales.” But next to the mission-statement scale of The Epic, Seven is as hard and taut as a Ramones album, a fusion fired in the mosh pit.
