Seventh Angel signs with Bombworks Records
Bombworks Records has announced the signing of the reformed British metal band Seventh Angel. The group will enter Priory studios in Birmingham with Greg Chandler in late March to record its first album since the release of "Lament for the Weary". Entitled "The Dust of Years", the new CD will be made available in the summer as a deluxe digipack. Artwork will be handled by Matt Vickerstaff of Darkwave Art, who has previously worked with My Dying Bride and My Silent Wake. Video footage of Seventh Angel performing the song "Forbidden Desires" at the Nordic Fest 2008, which was held November 14-16 at Sub Scene in Oslo, Norway, can be viewed below.
Seventh Angel's current lineup is a mixture of the early and final lineup of the band before it split in 1992:
Ian Arkley (My Silent Wake, Paramaecium, Century Sleeper, The Other Window, Ashen Mortality) - Vocals Guitar
Tank (Suk Munky, Freekspert) - Drums
Simon Bibby (Fire Fly, Exoria, Amaranth) - Guitar
Mark Broomhead (Fire Fly, Exoria, Detritus) - Bass
Each member of Seventh Angel has been on his own musical and spiritual journey since the split, and the reformation has produced a band of increased depth and maturity, with all the musical intensity that made Seventh Angel such an international success.
Before its split, Seventh Angel produced two highly acclaimed internationally released studio albums and continued interest in the band prompted the release of early demos and live recordings in 2005. Throughout its career, Seventh Angel was the focus of much media attention within the music press and beyond, having appeared on the Bbc, Channel 4 and featured in the Daily Telegraph.
