Hi All - long time

[Wayniac]

Hi all - long time - just reset my password and decided to get back in here.
I took break from music for a while, and am starting to get the bug again. Was dabbling on my 6 string, and am ready to hopefully get back on my 7 string.
Any suggestions for good 7 string guitarists/bands to listen to, so i can hopefully stoke my motivation?

Welcome back... What kind of stuff are you listening to currently?

Thanks!
As far as 7 string - Broderick, Loomis, some limited Dream Theater stuff, some Vai, Macalpine.
I'm typically into Prog metal or heavy(ish) stuff like Nevermore.

Jason Richardson is the first one that comes mind though I'm not really up on shredders or stuff similar to those types of bands. I listen to more chuggy down tuned stuff that involves 7 string guitars, some djent and some not... Fear Factory, Spiritbox, Volumes, Knocked Loose, Attack Attack, Periphery, Alpha Wolf.

Not sure if they use 7's but Times of Grace "Medusa" is in drop and and a banger.
