Seven Channels is an explosive new modern rock powerhouse that mixes elements of Creed, The Marvelous 3 and Bang Tango. On this, their debut record, they offer up ten modern rock meets power-pop gems that strictly adhere to the 3 ½ radio hit format. With an eye towards infectious hooks, they pile on rich harmonies, ringing guitars and hard hitting drums and bass to create pure ear candy. 

Fans of the Marvelous 3 will find a lot to love here as this CD captures the same raw energy presented with a polished delivery that marks the Marvelous 3’s albums and vocalist Kevin Kirkwood could easily pass for Butch Walker’s brother. 

Songs like “Superconnected”, “Breathe”, “Electric Voices” are an easy fit for Modern Rock Radio and are sure hits if program directors have enough sense to spin the songs. Other songs like “Rooftop” and “Helium” take on a more punk meets power-pop feel that offers a nice contrast while remaining true to the band’s overall sound.  All together this CD marks a strong debut for Seven Channels and a compelling buy for fans of powerful yet melodic rock.

Posted by BigD:
When is the new disc coming out?????


Posted by ThikSong:
i think the disc is killer, i dont care if they sound like other bands, they are of my generation and they rock harder than any other band i know. -7 channels fan!


Posted by 7th channel:
Hey they may sound like other bands but isnt that what rock is about? The disc sounds killer and if you dig pop rock then its a sure thing. For all you serious music nuts out there listen to your discs and let the mass public make their choice.


Posted by generic rock fan:
I would love these guys if I was a generic rock fan. I bought the album and it is good but it has been done so many times before... also, rock/pop bands shouldn't take themselves too seriously. Lyrics remind me of Linkin Park in the sense that they think the lines they are singing are profoundly groundbreaking. Good album for generic rock though. Production is very good as well.


Posted by who ever:
their debut album is great. who ever said they sound like any other rock bands out there is obviously deaf or mentally challenged.


Posted by CrewEar:
These guys sound like most other bands of the time- generic rock. I picked up the disc and was not suprised to find yet another under 12 song disc of 3.5 minute pop songs on the brink of being punk but not quite.


Posted by David:
I just saw them with three doors down and they were one of the best bands I have ever seen I highly suggest you buy this cd.
