Author Benedetta Baldin - 12.10.2024

For Seven Hours After Violet, this is a significant week. This past Monday, October 7h, the nascent supergroup performed live for the first time as part of an in-studio session for SiriusXM’s Liquid Metal station. Their self-titled debut album and the music video for “Cry….” below were both released on October 11. The group’s next big event is this Saturday’s (October 12th) return of the “Mayhem Fest,” where they will perform live for the first time. The Glen Helen Amphitheater in San Bernardino, California, will host the event.

‘Cry‘ captures the agony of trying to hold onto something that’s already broken, that inevitable downfall when love turns into torment. It’s about being locked in a space of emotional suffocation, where every attempt to hold on only pulls you further into the abyss. This is the pain we wanted to channel—a song for anyone who’s ever felt like they’re drowning in their own emotions. Seven Hours After Violet

This record is everything I’ve wanted to put out for years. It’s heavy, it’s melodic, it’s vulnerable, and, at times, completely chaotic. With ‘Cry,’ we wanted to create something that rips you apart emotionally—both sonically and lyrically. This album is our collective truth, and we’re very excited for the world to finally hear it.
