7 DAYS BEFORE

Since its creation in 2008, 7 DAYS BEFORE has built its own identity, taking influences from various rock/hardcore/punk/fusion bands (from Rage Against The Machine to Refused, passing through Thrice...), but also from hip-hop (Cypress Hill, Foreign Beggars....). The very raw style of the early days has become more refined. The band can go from extremely efficient rock'n'roll tracks to more atmospheric and intimate songs, but they never put aside their catchy choruses, all of this lead by the groove of hip-hop !
After the release in 2010 of their first EP Rip it, Burn it, that was warmly welcomed by French and foreign critics (web, radios, print media), the band has been giving concerts in two French tours.
During the summer of 2011, the bass player Tom takes his leave from the band to concentrate on his own projects. Quentin from the band Kaylz joins the team, and 5 news tracks are recorded at the end of the same year. These songs, showing the musical evolution of the band, gives birth to the new EP Fast Fame, Fast Fall, a mix of the early crazy riffs, strengthened by new influences and the encounters the band has made on the road and elsewhere.
In the way that hip-hop does, the composition work gives more room to the texts. Acerbic and cynical comments of today's world, they are inspired by literature, news, and the band members own experience.
On stage «the show convinces the more sceptical people of the quality of the band », that offers « a compound of pure energy given without frills ».
7 DAYS BEFORE goes through a lot of artistic collaborations, especially with electronic music. After a guest appearance on Rip it, Burn it, NOONE is back on Fast Fame, Fast Fall.
Continuing on this path, the band releases Rip it, Remix it at the end of 2011 : the first EP entirely remixed by great artists of the French electro scene. An unheard-of experiment for a rock band !
7 DAYS BEFORE is followed and backed by regional structures (Le Ninkasi, Le Brise Glace, Smilodon Music...) and is also endorsed by Star's Music, Clayton USA and DIY Clothing.
7DB will be back on the road in 2012 to present Fast Fame Fast Fall on stage !
