Seven Witches released a Demo-CD in 1998 which gave them a record deal with Massacre Records. The first two CDs Second War In Heaven and City Of Lost Souls featured vocalist Bobby L. Bobby Lucas was the one who named the band and wrote the lyrics with Jack Frost, Bobby Lucas left the band in 2000 and was replaced with Wade Black who left Crimson Glory for Seven Witches.
With Wade Black on vocals, the band recorded their 3rd Studio Album Xiled To Infinity And One. Wade Black left the band in 2002 and was replaced with James Rivera (Helstar). Bass Guitar player Billy Mez also left the band in 2002 and was replaced with the well known Joey Vera who has played in Fates Warning, Anthrax, and Armored Saint.
James Rivera gained huge success and recorded two albums with the band, Passage To The Other Side and Year Of The Witch. James left the band in 2005 to continue with his main project, Helstar.
In June, 2005, singer Alan Tecchio (most known for his work with the band Hades) joined Seven Witches and recorded their sixth studio album, Amped. Alan joined the band after singing on "Hell or High Water", a song for Jack Frost solo project. Frost, satisfied with Tecchio's vocals, asked him to join the band. Shortly after that, Kevin Bolembach also joined as Seven Witches' new bass player. Kevin and Alan had played together in Non-Fiction from 1991 to 1996.
Seven Witches released "Deadly Sins" in 2007. Former bass player Joey Vera mixed the album.
To celebrate the band's 10th anniversary, Seven Witches has reunited with vocalist James Rivera for a tour and a new album that is expected to be released sometime in 2009.

We are the Coven
Seven Witches Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You shall witness the truth
Bathed in moonlight we praise the earth mother
Soon you shall have your proof
We are the ones who rejoice the earth's power
Nature is our true friend
Our deeds of flesh will excite one another
Feel the time start to slip away
To the ancient ones we will pray
Feel the power of the night as you join our Coven
Raise your face to the midnight sun
Now the ritual has begun
Taste the elixir of life as your enter the Coven
We are the ones who give praise to the moonlight
We embrace the night wind
We speak the tongue of the Old Ones before us
We are void of all sin
We sing praise with the Ancient Ones mantras
To them we owe a true debt
To learn the ways of the Magic Ones powers
How could we ever forget
We are pure we are natures force
Timeless souls void of all sin
We are Seven and our souls unite
Timeless spirits void of ills
We are the Coven
Born of the Seven
We are the Coven
We shall never fall
The lyrics to Seven Witches's song "We are the Coven" tell the story of a group of individuals united in their admiration and respect for nature, the earth, and the creative forces that govern their lives. The song describes how they honor these forces and engage in rituals to connect with them.
The first verse establishes the group's identity and purpose: they are the ones who seek the truth and worship the earth mother. They promise that those who join them will have their beliefs confirmed. The second verse elaborates on the group's rituals and beliefs, describing their excitation of each other's flesh and their ecstatic climax.
The chorus signifies that the group's power is linked to the moonlight and midnight sun, and that they feel a sense of connection to the ancient ones who came before them. The verse that follows emphasizes their dedication to the old ways and the lessons passed down through generations. The final verse concludes with the group's pride in their purity and conviction that their spirits are timeless and beyond sin.
