Meant nothing bad by it, for some reason, it just popped into my head and I thought I'd say it. :lol:

I guess because you said they're not "heaps new" but they're new to me because they live in the part of the Earth where the water flushes down the toilet the opposite direction. :rofl:

Seriously, don't mind me right now, my brain is fried. :lol:

And you're doing well. Five Star sounded pretty good, kinda reminded me of a heavier Apartment 26. :metal:

Definitely 5 star Prison Cell. :hbang: I even made a thread about them:

http://www.sevenstring.org/forum/general-music-discussion/98322-five-star-prison-cell.html

Unfortunately all my fave Aussie bands use (detuned) 6 strings. :scratch:

Well... there is Hutchman's band (top guy as well):

And I dunno whether you would like Mucc (Japanese), though they've been playing in US quite often recently:

http://www.sevenstring.org/forum/ge...ersatile-metal-funk-altrock-band-with-7s.html

I gotta get 4arm into using 7s. :wallbash:

Also Full Scale are back, dunno if Tristan is using 7s or 6s tuned to B:

Portal used to use 7-strings, use 8s now. Didn't know about 5*PC using 7s though.
edit: One of Defamer's guitarists uses a Jeff Loomis Sig. Thy Art Is Murder use 7s as well.

As far as I can tell (and I could be wrong), no one has mentioned Sybreed yet.

Also, sorry, I must contribute another shameless plug, as both my band Sky in Hiding and my solo project In Winter use 7-strings. The links are in my signature, for anyone who's intrested. :)

Wasn't Portal a post-Cynic-break up-project thingy? or is it still existing?
or is it a completely different band?

Oh, and I might have missed something, but is it just me or no one mentioned Animals As Leaders? both 7 and 8 strings if I'm not mistaken....

I dunno if been mentioned, but Amon amarth could technically be considered 7'ers, since they play in B standard...

But since they play 6s, they can't be considered 7'ers.

Yea...I went ahead and got an email out to Bell to get a similar one made if possible. That's awesome. Embodyment was one of the reasons I got into 7 string guitars, the Famine only fuels the fire.

Right on man. They were the same reason for me and I now have the honor of playing with them when they're in town.

You might have more luck calling Don. His email was down for a while. PM me for his number/personal email
