Seventh Star has toured the US several times and has had the pleasure of sharing the stage with the likes of Agnostic Front, Hatebreed, Sick of it All, Blood for Blood, Shai Hulud, Most Precious Blood, Comeback Kid and As I Lay Dying.
2004 was a turning point for Seventh Star. After returning from a winter tour in 2003 with Hoods and Haste the Day, Seventh Star were three members and one van short of a touring band. They took a hiatus in 2004 to re-group and resurfaced with singer Johnny Intraivaia and guitarist Chase Moore.
With this solidly dedicated line-up, Seventh Star plowed through 2005 releasing their heaviest, most dynamic album to date, “Brood of Vipers".
After a European tour they recorded "The Undisputed Truth" and released it on Facedown Records in 2007.
March.29th will be their last show in 2008, They have announced that they will no longer be a band after Facedown Fest.
Just wanted to add that they announced that they will be breaking up as of March 2008.
Resistance to Resistance
Seventh Star Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You try to hold me back
You try to tempt me down the wide path
You try to hold me down
You try to hold me back
You try to stir doubt in my heart
But I'm breaking out
From the chains that once imprisoned me
But I'm breaking out
And I'm breaking free
No power of death over me
For years, I feared, death and my destiny
Black cloud, of guilt, looming over me
Locked down, hell bound, from my birth
You fed, my head, with thoughts of no escape
I'm breaking out
The devil, he tempts me
The world, beckons me
The flesh, condemns me
They want to take me out
You try to hold us down
You try to hold us back
You try to tempt us down the wide path
You try to hold us down
You try to hold us back
You try to stir doubt in our heart
But we're breaking out
And we're breaking free
From the chains that once imprisoned us
But we're breaking out
And we're breaking free
No power of death over us
