New UK metal release with fretless bass and oriental influences

[ArranMcs]

My metal band Seven7's album 'Under Eye' is here and I'm playing my fretless on the whole album!



The brand new album called “Under Eye” was mixed by Nick Kacal and mastered by Rupert Christie and will be out on 1st August 2011. With special guest Pete Riley (Guthrie Govan/Keith Emerson) on drums, the album is a tour-de force linking virtuoso jazz/metal guitarist Nicolas Meier’s love of oriental scales and rhythms that he has brought across from his jazz band The Nicolas Meier Group, with the grooves and riffs of heavy metal. With Dave Brown’s deep melodic growls, Riley’s technical grooves and McSporran’s souring fretless lines, the album is “contemporary metal that explores many styles from proggy stuff through to the hard rhythms of Fear Factory, but the sound is always cohesive” (Live review).

You can hear the whole album IN FULL on BandCamp and you can download the album from there, or buy it on CD from our website www.seven7.name!!!

Don't forget to listen to the track 'Under Eye', as there is a bass solo!

I'm going to check this out. I love oriental stuff, as well as metal. I think it could be really good. Either way, it'll be interesting, I doubt you'll dissapoint me in this regard.
