The band commented on the new track: “Oathbreaker sets the tone for the entire album – a reflection on progress and its unpredictable consequences. As humans, we are driven by curiosity and innovation, but also by a naivety that we can control what we create. History has shown that progress always comes at a price – sometimes obvious, sometimes unforeseen – and we may not always be ready to pay it”.

Seventh Crystal explained the concept of the album: “We live in an age of social media, AI, filter bubbles and sensational headlines by unknown writers. Disinformation controls the masses and creates multiple truths where the reality remains unknown. The development of technology is largely about solving problems and fulfilling human needs. But can it also lead to the opposite and become its own master with humans as its subjects? A kind of being, an “Entity”.
 
“Entity” is a depiction of past and present in which this particular development is at the centre. “For good or bad?”, “Under or out of control?” – the listener is the one who gets to decide”, continue the band.

Seventh Crystal, who stormed on the melodic rock scene in 2021 since their stunning debut album “Delirium”, with this third full-length work, “Entity”, take everything up a major level (or two, really). 

The album sees the band exploring and expanding different genres, bringing their melodic rock formula, to progressive rock fields, sometimes little heavier and back to their unique rock style.

Seventh Crystal is a melodic hard rock band from Gothenburg formed by Kristian Fyhr in 2019. What started as a solo project by Kristian, quickly grew into a larger endeavour when Johan Älvsång and Olof Gadd joined the project. Shortly after, Anton Roos and Emil Dornerus also joined the band, completing the initial lineup.

In 2020, the band signed a deal with Frontiers Records and released their debut album “Delirium” in 2021, making waves all around the world. Due to the guitar-heavy parts on the album, the band realised that they needed one more guitarist to be able to perform the songs live. Gustav Linde, an old friend of Anton Roos, took on the job, and the band began to work on their slightly more guitar-oriented follow-up album, “Wonderland”.

“Wonderland” was released in 2023, alongside the EP “Infinity”, establishing the band as an act to be reckoned with. During the fall, Johan Älvsång decided to step aside, and the band continued as a five-piece into the recordings of a third album.

Drawing inspiration from a variety of genres, from soft rock to hard-hitting heavy metal, Seventh Crystal showcase a diverse range of musical expression. The band aims to be authentic and serve as an inspiration, outlet, and escape for their audience. Their sound is characterised by bombastic productions, catchy hooks, and dramatic and emotional melodies.
