Artist History Formed in 1995, Winston-Salem, NC’s CODESEVEN was started by three brothers (James, Jon and Matt) who have grown up playing together since toddlers. The first group of songs the band wrote were recorded for a demo and later picked up and released by local punk rock label Huel records. While half of the band was still in high school, the buzz around the record was attracting interest from other labels. The band decided on The Music Cartel and released A Sense of Coalition in July of 1998. Their cover of Don Henley's "Boys Of Summer" reached the top of the college radio charts, aired on the WWF Sunday Night Heat program, and was even played and critiqued on the Howard Stern show! Their next release, Division Of Labor is a mini-LP that shows the band's musical growth into a multi-dimensional entity. CMJ magazine stated "With chiming guitar tones, quirky time changes and a delicate balance between loudness and melody, CODESEVEN whirls like Hot Water Music doing a tango with Cave In" which later went on to top the CMJ charts for a second consecutive time. The masterful production was done by the band and Kurt Ballou of Converge at Godcity in Boston, Mass. As Division of Labor hit the stores in July of ‘99, numerous reviews and interviews followed up shortly in magazines such as Hit Parader, Metal Maniacs, Terrorizer, Kerrang and countless underground fanzines across the US and throughout Europe. Their desire to write spastic but well crafted songs was beginning to gain interest from all genres of the media around the world. After touring the US numerous times--playing with bands such as Avail and Boy Sets Fire to Saves The Day and A New Found Glory--they began writing their follow up to Division Of Labor in 2001 entitled The Rescue. The Rescue, was produced by Alex Newport (At The Drive In, Will Haven, Sepultura) and is scheduled to be released in May of 2002. Look for them touring through your town as they will be on the road non-stop in support of The Rescue
