Category 7 - Apple Of Discord (Official Video) CATEGORY 7: John Bush – vocals Phil Demmel – guitar Mike Orlando – guitar Jack Gibson – bass Jason Bittner – drums CATEGORY 7, the new heavy metal collective featuring the all-star lineup of John Bush (Armored Saint, Anthrax), Mike Orlando (Adrenaline Mob, Sonic Universe, Noturnall), Phil Demmel (Machine Head, Kerry King, Vio-Lence), Jack Gibson (Exodus), and Jason Bittner (Shadows Fall, Overkill), today unleashes their latest single, “Exhausted.” The track comes by way of the band’s self-titled debut full-length, set for release on July 26th through Metal Blade Records. Named after the numerical designation for the most powerful windstorms, CATEGORY 7 came together from a batch of musicians who strived to play music they loved and weren’t hearing elsewhere and wanted to do so with bandmates they enjoyed being with. Together, the band has created an album that is fresh and familiar; a new breed of metal that lives up to the storied histories of its members. The mixture of NWOBHM, thrash, punk-metal, and traditional metal is cohesive and sonically rewarding, establishing an eclectic musical backdrop for vocalist John Bush’s instantly identifiable vocals. At the same time, the diversity of styles creates its own template that’s ideal for headbanging, moshing, and voluble sing-alongs. “It’s all about big verses and big songs, and it has a lot of the elements we’ve explored in our other bands,” notes guitarist and main songwriter Mike Orlando. Category 7 was produced, engineered, mixed, and mastered by Orlando at Sonic Stomp Studios with art and layout by Carlos Fides at Artside Studio (Angra, Evergrey, Kamelot).

Then let’s have a good look at your heart It’s clear to a panel of doctors That your vitals are ripping apart Thank you – for little at all Will do – agree to the stonewall – stonewall I lit the fire so stew on this Here is one perspective Try me I’ll be aggressive Cause the apple of discord Is decided by the sword Here is a true perspective I’m known to be destructive Cause the apple of discord Is a fight not an accord – no Hang – Hang it up – Or hang with a new clientele There’s plenty of gullible shyster’s Who you can bunker with in your citadel Seats for the pitched battle Are going fast and the time is short But the locks are on the cages Gonna be cramped in this tiny fort Thank you – for nothing at all Will do – Agree to the overhaul – overhaul I’ll stoke the fire so choke on this Here is a one perspective Trust me I’ll be aggressive Cause the apple of discord Is designed by the overlord Here is a true perspective I’ll never be submissive Cause the apple of discord Is a fight not an accord – no, fuck noI Deep strife has arrived The old adage to build a bridge Just ain’t feeling right Give take Sprain to break Real intrigue is turning bleak For cozy socialites
