AlternativeNation.net was kind enough to review our newest single - New Solutions

Effortlessly marrying rich pop-punk harmonies, rage-fueled hip-hop influences and a steady dose of kick ass rock, SixTwoSeven wildly debut two new tracks so good, you’ll be chomping at the bit to get some more of the good stuff they’re offering up. “New Solutions” and “A Winter in Palmyra” breathe new life into a sorely stale original rock scene. Fans of Rage Against the Machine, 311 and Blink 182- this is the band for you! 

The double-vocal attack of “New Solutions” hearkens back to the late 90’s when 311 combined fresh, melody-driven vocals and solid rap assaults. Except SixTwoSeven crank it all to eleven. The aggressive rapping sits upon a perfectly laid out musical bed full of manic drumming, swirling piano line and straight-up fierce guitars. SixTwoSeven operate with a confidence and poise rarely seen in rock music today. 

Repeated listens are necessary for “New Solutions”. The first time around, maybe its the solid chorus. The second time, maybe the piano lines that weave in and out throughout stand out. The third time around- it’s the insane guitar solo! The solo makes great use of Whammy Pedals all while maintaining a nice balance between straight up rock guitar and outside the box wizardry. 

On “A Winter in Palmyra”, SixTwoSeven take some risks with some synth lines and soundscapes. Instead of distracting from the song though, these additions take a solid vocal melody and catchy rhythm and only elevate them. The song’s lyrics paint a picture of integrity- or perhaps the lack thereof. “A Winter in Palmyra” connects on all fronts from start to finish. 

The Seattle, Washington rockers certainly have laid out a solid foundation. One full of promise and potential. SixTwoSeven provide a take on music all too absent in 2018. And while that certainly does make them appealing, it’s their monster musicianship and feverishly unique ability to rock that truly set them apart. Check out SixTwoSeven!

It's not very often you get to drop two singles on the same day that you wrote for each of your two best friends. For me however, tody is one of those days.

Alternative Nation wrote a really sweet piece on the new singles

SixTwoSeven, the ambitious, in your face rock outfit from Greg Bilderback have released two killer songs that you absolutely must stop to hear! “Heaven Knows” and “Running with the Big Kids” perfectly encapsulate the artistry and edge of the alternative rockers. Formed in 2016, “Heaven Knows” and “Running with the Big Kids” show the fantastic growth and further potential the band has conquered in a mere two years of life. 

Helping the band further define their sound and cut their teeth is the extensive touring they’ve gotten under the belt. The wealth of experience and professional growth that comes with a run of successful tours no doubt seeped its way into these two tracks.

“Heaven Knows” launches into form with a glorious guitar riff reminiscent of big hair 80’s metal before attacking the listener with an onslaught of dark, scratchy vocals in the vein of Trent Reznor. With a full blown alternative rock sonic assault. The richness and maturity of the song far extends that of which you would expect from a band still somewhat in their infancy- but therein lies the genius behind SixSevenTwo. The song-writing of Greg Bilderback is slick, tight and all encompassing.  The man knows how to compose a great song. 

On “Running With the Big Kids”, the slithery guitar line jives about while the vocal melody is what owns you from the get-go. There’s a lot to hold onto and say, “AHAH!” with on “Running With the Big Kids” and each musical aspect is a winner- even the understated, driving drums which carry the song along all the way through to the finish. 

Solid rock and alternative bands are no doubt underrepresented in our current musical climate. What elevates SixTwoSeven is their undeniable charm and polished song-writing. You can never go wrong with strong song-writing. Here though, the added bonus is that the songs are killer and harken back to a better time in rock music we all wish we could return to.

The US rock quartet SixTwoSeven released the AA side single Heaven Knows / Runnin’ with the Big Kids on the 25th.

Their signature sound of blurry riffs gives the heavy-rock foundations of the songs a garage rawness that allows SixTwoSeven to play around with texturing and timing in the compositions and creates a distinctive visibility to the music.

Do you ever get sick of life coming at you so fast all the time, that all you feel like you have time to do is just react to things? #heavenknows we do too. It sure would be nice to get a choice from time to time. These cuts are for all of you out there just doing your best to keep up with the big kids. The world can be a very inhospitable place, everybody needs a punk rock song for a pillow from time to time. Here is yours - DubSeven Records

100 Bands in 100 Days by Varity Credit Union - Day #35 - SixTwoSeven

Ladies and gentlemen, and all local music enthusiasts, welcome back to the fourth annual outing of our year-end daily local music spotlight, 100 Bands in 100 Days, where every day until December 31st, we’ll be showcasing a new band or artist on the cutting edge of the Northwest, presented by Verity Credit Union. Make sure to check the #100Bands100Days hashtag at Twitter daily to stay on top of all the bands featured, and make sure to follow Verity on Twitter and NW_Music_Scene as well. Some days the featured act could be an established and locally-adored Northwest-based musician and other times they could be a band with a small following that just hasn’t had their deserved time in the sun yet. Either way, we’re fairly confident you can come away from this daily segment with plenty of new favorites. Today’s edition of this journey leads us off the beaten path — all the way to Gig Harbor, WA — to look at one of the often cloudy city’s best rock bands, SixTwoSeven.

Though originally founded by Greg Bilderback as recently as 2016, SixTwoSeven is a pure rock and roll outfit that shreds far beyond their years. SixTwoSeven’s approach to rock and roll is refreshingly, unapologetically blood-pumping, favoring loud, blown-out guitar riffs, hard grooves, and lead vocals that have a good grasp of melody and just enough rock gusto to empower their power poppy tracks. Their anthemic ass-kicking is influenced by and could be likened to other alt-rock greats that came before, most notably Foo Fighters, Queens of the Stone Age, and even a newer-age band like Royal Blood. It’s no wonder they’ve brought their invigorating live shows all over the map, from West Coast tours to opening for Agent Orange at Whisky a Go Go this summer. 

SixTwoSeven’s debut EP, Some Other’s Day, was unleashed to the public in August of 2016, and had an impressive pedigree for a rock newcomer, being recorded and produced by legendary producer Jack Endino, who’s lent his punishing, unforgiving production know-how to bands big and small. The EP is home to a series of catchy, but emotional and raw alternative rock tracks that are bursting with impressive solos, epic highs, and surprisingly despondent lows. Despite being just a debut EP, Some Other’s Day is a good taster for what SixTwoSeven is capable of, and with a full-length debut LP being released in winter 2017 (but you didn’t hear that from us), we can only expect pretty great things to hit the northwest hard in the coming months.

Middle Tennessee Music Review of Some Other's Day

Seattle based alt-rockers SixTwoSeven pack a highly stimulating aural assault on their latest EP, Some Other’s Day. 

Like a delicious PB&J sandwich using the crunchiest of peanut butter, SixTwoSeven deliver chunky guitars, finger lickin’ riffs, delicious melodies and enough energy to give you that much needed boost whether early morning, mid-afternoon or late at night. 

Catchy hooks like the one in Top Of The World, lyrical depth like that of Joshua’s Song,  excellent riffage like you hear in One Single Night, and the raw energy combined with the infectious melody of Wreckless Soul join forces for a strong, sonically powerful, cohesive EP which would be one hell of an experience experienced live. 

SixTwoSeven bring excitement and refreshing passion to their flavor of alternative rock. 

Screaming Guitars.com reviewed our EP

Quite poppy indy rock with an ear for a hook and some tasty hooks. Reminds me of Weezer mixed some lighter Foo Fighters. “Josuha” has some big chunky bass lines rolling and “Top of the World” rolls with a spirited abandon. Gotta be honest, I’m waiting for the band to just bust out. They show some signs of this on their best song, “Top of the World,” where they gargle out with some punk ferocity and some real charge to the riffs. “One Single Night” follows suit with some infectious zip, but songs like “Wreckless Soul” sound strangely restrained and anything but wreckless. Like they’re chained at the starting line and can’t quite fire off when the light turns green. Good stuff. Fun for a road trip, but I can’t help thinking there’s something more lurking under the surface. One to watch.
