Seventh Wonder was formed in 2000 by bassist Andreas Blomqvist, guitarist Johan Liefvendahl, and drummer Johnny Sandin after their previous band fell apart. The music they were writing and playing quickly turned towards progressive metal. When keyboardist Andreas Kyrt Söderin joined in late 2000, their new sonic explorations were only cemented further. Two demos were recorded and the latter caught the attention of the finnish label Lion Music, who signed the band in 2004. That collaboration spawned the first Seventh Wonder album, Become, which was released in June 2005. Become was well received by progressive metal fans and media alike; however, the band and singer Andi Kravljaca decided to part ways shortly after the recording process ended. Seventh Wonder would go on to greater things but this debut is solid and completely worth delving into. It is full, unique, mostly emotive, well-written and well-executed. If you havent heard the band before then this is where it all started. Become proved that they would be one of the greatest rising progressive/power metal bands in a long time.
