 Seventh Son of a Seventh Son - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Seventh Son of a Seventh Son is an album by heavy metal band Iron Maiden.
This album was the last to feature guitarist Adrian Smith until the album Brave New World in 2000 (he did write a song that Bruce Dickinson finished for the next album, 'Hooks in You').
Many of the musical and lyrical features prevalent on the albums The Number of the Beast through SSOASS disappeared as obvious musical markers on subsequent albums, and it is this 1982-1988 period in the band's history that stands as its "classic" period.

Iron Maiden's 1988 release, "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son" remains to be their most commercially successful album, and proves to be the end of the hay-day for one of the best and most popular metal acts ever.
Iron Maiden's 7th Son of a 7th Son is (like all truly great works of art) not easily disgestable upon the initial encounter.
Released in 1988, this was Maiden's 7th album (ya think?!), and IMHO it was also their 7th classic.

The album's first single, Bittersweet was picked up by every major radio station in the country and by August was well ensconced in the National Top 20, peaking at 16.
The album entered the national chart at number four, was certified Gold within three weeks and went Platinum shortly thereafter.

Really the album is about the family and the line of the father: In a sense, 'families and how to survive them.' I was born Raoul--I was called that for the first two weeks of my life.
My first son is Raoul, and it's that idea of a new generation coming along with a hope that they will make everything better.
The concept of original sin passed on, and all of a sudden a mutation occurs--the seventh son of the seventh son, shall we say--and the chain is broken, there's some kind of leap made to eradicate the past's misfortune.

In 1988, harsh thrash metal and radio-friendly glam rock were the two chief heavy metal genres.
Instead of aligning themselves to either camp, Iron Maiden stuck to their guns and issued a concept album, "Seventh Son of a Seventh Son".
Although the songs are all lyrically tied together by the story of a prophet who tries (unsuccessfully) to warn a village of an impending holocaust, they don't have to be listened to in succession to be enjoyed -- one of the main reasons the album worked so well.

 The Daily Vault Album Reviews : Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son
Being the concept album that it is (it's based loosely on the Orson Scott Card book "Seventh Son"), the album ends as it begins, with Dickinson (at his creepiest with a half-singing, half-speaking tone) repeats the passage at the beginning of the album while an acoustic guitar plays lightly in the background.
Unfortunately, this album would mark the end of another Maiden epoch.
However, despite the album's lack of length (only 38 minutes), it remains one of their better releases, and should be cherished by all.

When Seventh Day Slumber titled their latest effort (and first for BEC Recordings) Once Upon a Shattered Life, it was more than an eye-catching phrase or compelling means to listen.
Such a series of events was the catalyst for Seventh Day Slumber to form, which after its initial practice sessions, transformed into a pair of independent releases and subsequent tours.
Seventh Day Slumber inked with BEC Recordings earlier this year after being courted by its figurehead Brandon Ebel, who had been tracking the band’s progress for several years.
