Seventh Wonder

[kazzman]

Has anybody ever heard of these guys? I tried searching for a thread and didn't see any results come up so I figured I'd create one.

 

Fans of Kamelot may be familiar with these guys since Kamelot's new vocalist, Tommy Karevik, is also the vocalist of Seventh Wonder. They are a 5-piece Prog Metal outfit from Stockholm Sweden. Up til now, they've released four albums and are currently in the studio working on a fifth. They will also be one of the headlining acts at next years Prog Power Festival in Atlanta, GA and will perform their concept album Mercy Falls in it's entirety.

 

 

For more information, you can go to http://en.wikipedia..../Seventh_Wonder for a brief history of the band. Recommended albums would be both Mercy Falls and The Great Escape

If you're trying to get people into this band, you picked the wrong song. I think Alley Cat is a good tune but it's also a song written to be a single and doesn't represent what the band is about very well. They are a great band and I think Mercy Falls is a masterpiece of an album. If anyone is wondering I always thought they sounded something like Dream Theater with a power metal fell to them.
