German Heavy Instrumental project BLACK7 releases a dynamic and orchestral 2nd Single & Video “For This Moment"
German metal instrumental project BLACK7 releases the 2nd single and the video of the forthcoming album "The 2nd chapter". "For This Moment" stands for why I write songs and put in so much work and energy. I'm always looking for ideas that grab me or touch me. I managed to do that with this song.” explains Lars Totzke
A catchy melody - dynamic, melodic and orchestral. As with the first single, the lead guitar leads through the song. The full and powerfully produced sound of the power chords paired with the symphonic sounds of violins is an experience. The solo is the
highlight of the song so you never lose your attention and don't even realize how quickly the song is over. "For this moment" is clearly different from the first single and is still unmistakably Black 7's style.
Biography
Black 7 is a solo project by Lars Totzke, a guitarist and
songwriter from Hanover. After his first album “Look Inside” was
successfully released in 2021, the sequel "2nd Chapter" is scheduled
to drop in 2023. Stylistically it is a bit darker besides the melodic
songs. Many different moods and styles are fused together again. Heavy
parts alternating with quiet moments creating a wonderful journey to
the listener, you will never miss the vocals!
Influenced by bands and artists such as Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Rainbow, Sevendust, Dream Theater, Slipknot and Korn, but also by Satriani, Gary Moore, Al di
Meola and Paco de Lucia, Lars Totzke's music is a unique mixture of
its own. This time, too, all instruments have been recorded by Lars
himself. A large development in growth can be clearly seen in this
second album, from style to composition and structure.

"There is just so much going on, from a death-dealing speed metal riff
here to a pompously overblown melody there, from solos that would sear
a steak quicker than a Texan barbecue to beautifully constructed
passages of lilting pathos, all of which counterpoint each other
superbly." -

"Black 7 features the most graceful interchanges between leading
instruments ... lures people into the symphony with the somber violin,
quickly turning into a sorrowful acoustic guitar which is then
beautifully overtaken by a soulful electric guitar." - mxdwn.com
"The whole lot, listening to ‘Look Inside’ was like telling a story of
what could be going in the music in your own image and imagination" -
