SEVEN TEARS
Guitarist Jonathan Carlemar sent us an interesting insight on the songs included on Prog-Metal hopefuls SEVEN TEARS debut album "In Every Frozen Tear" due out on Frontiers Records on December 7th 2007. Enjoy the read !
Twist of Fate:
A powerful opening track that contains everything that Seven Tears stand for, with heavy riffs and melodic song melodies. It was a part of the demo that gave us the deal with Frontiers Records and it means a lot to us all. Great song!
Faded Memory:
This catchy song starts with a really cool 7/4 guitar riff and an awesome synth melody. I'm sure you will sing along to the chorus as soon as you hear it and it has a lot of influences from the 80's!
Hollow Ground:
This is one of the heaviest songs on the album and I think that many bearded, tattooed men will enjoy it! Brutal guitars and great vocals in a beautiful combination. I think that this will be the favourite track for many listeners!
Reflections:
This song is a nice hybrid between and modern metal and AOR. I think that this track will work on the radio stations worldwide and the chorus has a catchy "hit-feeling". This song will also be released as a radio edit in Japan.
All Alone:
This powerful ballad is one of our oldest songs and I just love the version on the record! Heavy guitars, excellent work with the keys and brilliant vocals by Zoran. I hope that the listeners will enjoy it as much as I do!
In Every Frozen Tear:
The title track of the record contains a lot of Prog elements and is a nice mixture of heavy guitar rhythms and melodic singing. It has always been a challenge for us to play, but truly fun!
Sorrows:
The song starts with catchy riff that leads in to a cool tapping run. I don't know what to say about the song really, but I think it's a great one!
Prayer For The Dying:
This track opens with a heavy Megadeth riff that might be the heaviest part of the record. The song is very catchy and a mixture of different styles and influences. One of the coolest if you ask me!
The Story Unfolds:
One of my personal favourites on the record. The intro riff is as powerful as the rest of the song and the melodic chorus adds an interesting touch on the track. I'm also very satisfied with the guitar work on this song!
Dream of Insanity:
This is a cool track with a great riff melody and a heavy verse followed by a catchy up tempo chorus. It was one of the last songs that we wrote for the album and I am truly satisfied!
Fragments:
This dark track is kind of demanding for the listener but a true highlight on the album. It has always been a favourite for us in the band. It has a really cool solo part with an outstanding keyboard solo and a melodic guitar part. The end of the song is kind of weird but we decided to keep it that way because it sounds awesome.
Truth of Tomorrow:
I wrote this epic song in a very important time of my life and is therefore a very special song for me. It starts with an acoustic guitar intro that is followed by some strings and a heavy and melodic riff. It's a good end song and hope you will enjoy it as much as the record!
