It goes without saying that 7 Horns 7 Eyes can be categorized as metal, but the culmination of their songwriting for Throes Of Absolution is the product of a wide range of musical inspiration, as is characteristic of every artist who has stood the test of time. Factor in a high standard of natural creative sensibility, a healthy academic knowledge of music & rhythm and a steadfast desire to invest serious time and effort into their craft and it becomes evident that 7 Horns 7 Eyes is a band set to flourish. The Seattle quintet brings a fresh sound to a genre that many would argue has gotten stale. Rich with atmosphere, technical proficiency and tasteful restraint, the result is heavy, epic, dense and emotive creating a truly artistic listening experience. Today's metal climate may indeed be in need of more ingenuity, but the truth is that for those who know where to look, there are still respectable bands who write music that's worth listening to. 7 Horns 7 Eyes is one of those bands.
