NEWS: Sum of Seven ask who is the enemy?

It’s been four months since their last audio confession “Voices” so Finnish Progressive Metal band Sum of Seven, the artists formerly known as Sonus Corona have chosen to releases a new single “The Enemy“, another one released in collaboration with Inverse Records. The six piece’s well received 2019 full length near hour of power “Time Is Not On Your Side” is still on our playlist…

Guitarist and backing vocalist Ari Lempinen comments: “The Enemy is a song that starts out fast and aggressive and really carries that momentum from start to finish. It is one of the heaviest songs that we have made so far. When that intro explodes you know that we’re going somewhere fast. But at the same time when the vocal melodies kick in they steer the song into a different direction than you might expect, still carrying the aggressive momentum. That element of surprise is really what crowns the song for me. The Enemy has one of the best melodies we have written in my opinion and Marko’s delivery is just absolutely breath-taking. The lyrics talk about freedom, victory and survival, but they also have connotations to the questionable interpretations of those subjects. The message can be interpreted as positively empowering, but also as a disturbingly delusional illusion.”
