Seven Thorns

Seven Thorns is a Danish/Swedish Neo Power Metal band formed in 2007. The first album "Return to the Past" was released in 2010. Despite being somewhat latecomers to the power metal scene, Seven Thorns' sound draws heavily on the "old school of power metal" citing influences by bands such as Gamma Ray, Helloween and Stratovarius. Although not a neo-classical metal band as such, their songwriting reflects a great deal of influence from classical music. After the release of the debut album Return to the Past in 2010 through Nightmare Records Seven Thorns toured Europe to promote the album and the band. In 2011 they supported Circle II Circle, in 2012 Lilian Axe and in 2013 Raven. The band's follow-up album, entitled "II" was released in February 2014 which garnered equal amounts of positive reviews and radio airplay. Between mid 2014 and mid 2015 both Gustav Blide, Christian Strøjer, and Nicolaj Marker left the band to attend to other obligations. Björn Asking and Mads Mølbæk joined the ranks Seven Thorns covering the duties of lead singer and bassist respectively. The band continued playing concerts and festivals in Europe and was also booked to play the biggest metal festival in Sri Lanka - Maelstrom Festival - in 2015. Many more festivals have been played incl. Copenhell, Festevil, Bremer Metal Festival and Baltic Hell Open Air. In 2018 there will be a new album followed by more concerts... Metal Is Your Destiny!
