Imagine Trent Reznor arm wrestling James Hetfield, with Rob
Zombie as referee….now you’ve got a good idea of the Edges of
Seven sound. Simply put, a fusion of heavy rock and electronic
influences plus one important element: “originality”. Eo7 began
in 2000 as the one man endeavor of guitarist/vocalist/songwriter
Robert Takacs. Writing and recording a number of songs,
designing various incarnations of the Eo7 website, and basically
promoting Eo7 via the internet, got things started. In 2003,
Robert was joined by former Frontline Assembly & Unit 187
drummer Jason Hagan, keyboardist/programmer Corey Hunt,
guitarist Mark Santacattarina, and bassist Ryan Smith, to bring
Eo7 from a solo project, to a full band. With airplay on
Vancouver’s CFOX, plus numerous shows in and around Vancouver,
the band started to create a buzz. In 2006, Eo7 entered the
studio to record their debut CD “Born Again Hard”, which was
released in 2007. Sadly, Eo7 suffered a tremendous loss when
bassist Ryan Smith passed away on August 2nd, 2006 at the age of
28, “Born Again Hard” is dedicated to Ryan’s memory. In April of
2007, Eo7 was recharged and had the fire lit again with the
addition of 2 new members: Guitarist Carmello Bruzzeze, and
bassist Steve Booth. Shortly after, yet another huge opportunity
presented itself when the band joined forces with former Korn
manager Will “Willobee” Carlan. Several shows around Vancouver,
including opening slots for Helmet (with James “Munky” Schaffer
in attendance) and Econoline Crush followed. The band is
currently writing and rehearsing for upcoming shows and a
possible tour.
