13435551_1710009075918152_6514620390455688514_nSeven Hard Years (7HY) is the brainchild of SHY's drummer Allan Kelly. Back in 2014, 7HY took flesh and blood and released a superb slice of pure melodic rock stuff that impressed every fan of this particular scene. Nowadays, the band is ready for album number two with the title "Stories We Tell". 7HY's newest record is armed with 12 killer tracks in it and an impressive guest list such as Dave Martin, Pete Fry (FarCry) and Calle Hammer (Houston) among others and the sure thing is that "Stories We Tell" will be another great release from this band.

Lead singer, Shawn Pelata, has a clear and powerful voice and achieves to take the final result higher. "I'll Survive", the opening tune is a winner; a fast-paced rocker with a chorus line that sticks in your mind at once and Pelata's superb performances at front row!! The guitar work is, also, excellent!!! The moodier and 'darker' rocker of "Break The Spell" is another great sample of 7HY's music. The 80's "One More Day" is one of the new album's highlights!! A true U.S. flavored mid-tempo rocker with a great guitar work, passionate vocals and solid arrangements!!! "Church" is the heaviest track here, so far, while in "Broken Man" we are dealing with a brilliant song!!! Another catchy rocker with a huge chorus line, stunning arrangements and Pelata's amazing performances!! "Sweet Sensation" and "Wasn't Always Like This" (just listen to the killer guitar work!!!) are both very very good!!!!

The story about 7HY's "Stories We Tell" is that these guys achieve to release a well-crafted album that includes some killer tracks in it, an excellent musicianship, plenty of talent and heart and soul!!! Check it out!!!
