About Me

NEW SHIT COMING SOON BRUV!
"...An aggressive and technically proficient outfit who exploded onto the scene last summer. Wherever they were hiding, these boys must have been practising hard and their efforts have paid off in the form of a dedicated local fan base." - Gareth Arnold, Sheppey Gazette
"...Seven Year Kismet took to the stage first and proceeded to assault the venue with their infectious energy and savage metal riffery. Despite being a relatively new addition to the Medway music scene, there can be few bands to open up an event such as Dark Days and get the crowd excited enough to take part in a wall of death." - Dave Banks/Chris Thomas, Sheppey Gazette
"Bigger, better, badder." - Dave Banks, Cortex Rock Promotions
"Bands seem to come out of nowhere these days, I had only recently heard of 'Seven Year Kismet' and, hailing from Sheerness, they originate very close to where I live. This equals a very surprised reviewer with some brutality to wrap around my ear lobes. SYK churn out furious beatdowns and stunted metal riffage, in the vein of Lamb Of God, which leads on to seemingly rock'n'roll influenced intervals. This change in pace allows the songs to flow well and gives the songs room to breathe, rather than clutter up the tracks. There are a few places where things could be tightened up a bit, but overall these boys create a proficient and enjoyable sound. When you add this to the fact that they are playing dates all over the UK, It's not strange to imagine this band getting big within the UK Metalcore scene." - Nick the Greek, A Collective Webzine
