THE7THGATEKEEPER is a British band from South Wales. The mastermind behind the band is a real-life jack of all trades; he can write, arrange, mix, perform, and record. He sometimes sends the track to be mastered by Romesh Dodangoda, but it is clear that he is a multi-talented artist. He released his debut album last year under the title “Breakdowns or Breakthroughs.”
The7thGatekeeper
has drawn inspiration from literature, a short story by Thomas Mosris.After reading the story, he assembled this new track named “Amulet” at his house. The song is a tad different from his usual metal-influenced style.
From start to end, the song is very energizing. The guitar riff creates a steady tempo that is repeated during the song. It has a very hypnotizing effect. It is both exciting and catchy. I was bobbing my head the whole time during the song, and it kept playing in my head for a while after first listening to it.
The artist was interested in the raw, unfiltered, and direct energy of garage rock bands. The effect is very clearly shown on the track, and you can sense the raw energy right away. He has said before that he is influenced by QOTSA and Jack White.
The7thGatekeeper has said in a recent interview that the story behind the track was “a story of childlike sense of hope, luck, and wonder.”
If you liked the song, then you will probably be excited to know that The7thGatekeeper is planning to release a new album at the end of the year.
