Seventribe is a new Swedish band that was formed in 2000 in
the town of Västerås in the middle of the country from the ashes of
two other bands who broke up at that time. This demo cd contains material from
the band's two demos, released in 2000 and 2001 respectively, and is in fact
one of the most impressive demos I've received in a while within their genre.
The thing is that Seventribe plays aggressive metal somewhere inbetween
Machine Head and System Of A Down with very prominent hardcore influences,
courtesy of the strong Swedish scene. I generally find this genre to be rather
boring but luckily Seventribe is a very good band that still managed to
impress on me. Perhaps I should have reviewed these two demos separately but
since they are not that different musically I'm taking on both at the same
time. Being a seven-piece band they are able to deliver a very powerful sound
and I think that more bands should take use of the advantage of having several
vocalists and three guitarists. These guys are all between the ages 20 and 25,
an age suitable for a breakthrough, and they do deserve a record deal to tell
you the truth straight out. I don't listen to this kind of music very much
since it doesn't give me anything but I do admit that these demos contain
some very nice material, especially the vocally more aggressive tracks
"Wreckreation Camp", "Live In Vain" and "Head 2
This".
