Evan Seinfeld – Guitar/Vocals – Rusty Coones – Guitar – Tony Campos - Bass
ATTIKA 7, the “supergroup” featuring Evan Seinfeld (ex-Biohazard), Rusty Coones, and Tony Campos (Static-X, Ministry, Prong, has signed a deal with THC : MUSIC/Rocket Science Ventures/RED, who will release the band’s debut LP in North America, and in conjunction with Membran, in the rest of the World.
The band recently recorded their debut LP Blood of My Enemies with legendary producer MUDROCK (Avenged Sevenfold, Godsmack). Set to be released June 19th, Enemies is a brutal slab of unrelenting Hard Rock, backed by an authentic outlaw lifestyle. The groundwork was laid by guitarist and famed (Sons of Anarchy) motorcycle builder Rusty Coones in the confines of a federal penitentiary. It was in this unforgiving environment that he penned the songs that would eventually become the band’s uncompromising debut.
Attika 7 combines evil sounding downtuned riffs with very melodic vocal lines, old school guitar solos and undeniable grooves into a sonic frenzy of outlaw biker counter culture! From serious Rock, Hardcore and Heavy metal bands with iconic histories comes Attika 7, a kind of Fuck You to what is out there right now in terms of a lot of todays music. No screaming you can’t understand.. instead Passion. No fantasy, pure reality…. The reality of your worst nightmares. Songs about the trials and tribulations of life when the walls are closing in and your allies turn and run. Inspirational music about standing and fighting for your survival, alone! A soundtrack for the disenfranchised, the outcast, the misfits of society. If you’ve ever felt backed into a corner, Attika 7’s lyrics and songs will speak directly to you!
Evan Seinfeld – “As I embarked on my journey of musical and personal reinvention, the first step was to put together a band of incredible players, with diverse styles and a unified vision to write, record and perform timeless Heavy Metal, backed by an authentic outlaw lifestyle. Second, was to write and demo songs from our hearts and then to align ourselves with an amazing team in THC/Rocket Science for our debut release. Between Thom, Kevin, and the whole RS family, we feel such a strong sense of support and commitment from the label and we are fucking stoked that we have real partners in helping us to launch the ATTIKA 7 Army.
Rusty Coones – “I’m very excited to be signed to THC Music/Rocket Science. They have made it possible for us to get in the studio with one of the greatest Metal Producers of all time, MUDROCK. We are in the studio as we speak, and we are looking forward to finally creating our debut album, and letting people hear what ATTIKA 7 is all about.”
Mudrock - “I’m happy to make a record with a bunch of guys who really know what they are doing and I promise that it will rip your face off... I just hope Rusty doesnt kill me!”
Seinfeld, who recently retired from Brooklyn’s Biohazard, a band he formed in his teenage years comments,” After 10 albums and probably around 4000 concerts with Biohazard across 90 countries spanning 25 years, all I can say is that the only thing constant in life is change, and without it, things can become stagnant and repetitious. The creative situation for me playing with Rusty and Tony in ATTIKA fosters my genuine creativity to flow, and allowed us to build something heavy, authentic, new and exciting from the ground up. As proud as I am of everything I created and accomplished as the lead singer , bassist and frontman of Biohazard, including the new album, I encourage all my fans to check out my new direction, Attika 7. Something I am beyond passionate about and so excited… I feel as though I AM reborn in Defiance! Blood of my Enemies speaks for itself, and anyone who has any questions about why I felt the need to reinvent myself musically, can simply listen the tracks . Most people who have heard ATTIKA 7 who know me and my history usually say things to me like, man, I didn’t know you could sing like that, OR, WHO is that singing in this band? Others have told me that this is a move I should have made years ago. Either way, it is with Great Humility and and respect to all my fans that I am proud to present ATTIKA 7 Blood of my enemies,.. Album is being released June 13 and a full blown world tour will follow. “
