Installment number two in the category of the MONTHLY FEATURE. Are you excited? Well you should be. This month we have 7ENVY. Hailing from New Jersey, this grunge rock powerhouse has an original sound reminiscent of Nirvana and Breaking Benjamin. The band line-up consists of Kelly Bennett: lead vocals, Jose Valencia: guitar, Dan Bulich: bass; and John Curcio: drums. Influences of the band include Nirvana, The Doors, Janis Joplin, Seether and Tool. Vocals range from a delicate falsetto to a moderate scream similar to Linda Perry of 4 Non Blondes and Sandra Nasic of the Guano Apes. Mind-blowing guitar licks are melodic while carrying a hard hitting UMPH!!! Drumming style is a cross between Chad Channing and Dave Grohl; both Nirvana drummers, carrying a controlled rhythm with a tasty growl. Hard hitting bass lines can be most accurately compared to Reginald “Fieldy” Arvizu of Korn. This eclectic collection of sounds and styles produce all those good-feeling, face-melting vibrations that will surely perk up the ears of all those holding on to their hopes of a grunge come-back. As those hopes shall indefinitely be dashed; at the very least may the hard-rockers ROCK ON!!! ~C
