| The history of Seven Tears dates back to the earliest years of the 21st century, when two thirteen-years old schoolboys, Jonathan Carlemar and Fredrik Lager, decided to form a Power Metal band called "Demonslave". The first line-up consisted also included Niklas Lindahl (bass) and Richard Harbrecht (drums), but they never managed to reach out to the crowd as they intended to. Jonathan and Fredrik continued to write catchy power metal songs and the break-through came when they decided to let a female vocalist join them. Elin Johansson was the name of the new member and Fredrik moved from vocals to bass. The amazing Michael Sjöö (Spearfish, Fantasy Child) joined as a new drummer and Martin Rydlund took place behind the keyboards. This new line-up was known as "Atlantica" and they released their first self-titled demo in October, 2005. The demo received a great review in the Sweden Rock Magazine which forecasted a bright future for the band. They did a live show at the Skirö Festival, but kept silent for a while. The wheels started to spin rapidly again when maestro Kristofer von Wachenfeldt (Platitude, Fantasy Child, Neon Diver) took mr. Rydlund's place on keyboards and brought the bands songwriting skills and musicianship to a whole new level. After some vocalist changes, the current line-up, with Jonathan Carlemar (guitars), Fredrik Lager (bass), Kristofer von Wachenfeldt (keyboards) and Michael Sjöö (drums), started then to work on some new songs in a complete different musical direction and decided to change the name to "Seven Tears" which seemed to fit their new, more mature style. They were thrilled to get back on track again and asked the singer Zoran Djorem to join them. Zoran didn't hesitate and the demo "The Story Unfolds" (November, 2006) became their first release together. Zoran was exactly what the band had been looking for. He was the ultimate singer for Seven Tears, with his gritty and passionate vocal style. The demo contained an unique mixture of Dark Melodic Metal and an AOR-feeling with some prog-elements. The mixture of different styles from the members musical past gives the band a unique sound towards today's rock/metal bands. The music can easily be described as "Evergrey meets Journey". In late February 2007 the band signed a deal with FRONTIERS records for the release of their debut album "In Every Frozen Tear". The band hopes to be able to share their music with the world and to be always busy with songwriting. | |
