Thirteen Seven are a rock trio based in Edinburgh, Scotland. On the Inside is their debut EP. After a first listen to this record it is clear that the title track is outstanding. On their website the band cites many influences but the one that comes up most and is most apparent in the music is Alice in Chains. It is especially borne out in the title track. The song is so strong that you are left thinking how will the rest of the EP live up to it? The answer is: pretty good.
There are many influences at work here and most are American. This band is playing in the long tradition of Scottish bands and artists who sound like and are influenced by American rock and pop music, a tradition begun in the early to mid 80s with the likes of Simple Minds and Sheena Easton. These bands and artists went on to have success in the States and it would be no surprise if it
happens for Thirteen Seven as well. However, there is also the influence of British bands such as Radiohead and Muse and, the band may be surprised to hear, the vocalist sounds like Tony Hadley from Spandau Ballet, another powerful voice from the 80s.One of the best things about this band is its attitude. They talk and sound like a band who have already made it and this is important if you want to get noticed. The band exudes confidence and ability. But are they as good live as they are in the studio? How do they fill out the space live? Hopefully, the author will get a chance to decide but, for now, if the band tries to top the success of this EP, especially its opening track, and if they keep listening to good music then they should go places.

The Tripdown Project “Bodyhammer”
Founder members of Sheffield based Colorpool, Ritchie Chappell and Jojo Blythe, formed The TripDown Project in 2009 after Colorpool disbanded. The band were originally formed as a song writing project but playing live was always a big draw. After a chance comment by a friend the TripDown Project decided to start playing live as a 2 piece and put on a few shows.
The shows were really well received, and were always were pretty wild affairs. With the addition of synths and samples the live sound has grown and the band seem to have more energy than ever!. Bringing technology into the live setup has really helped the TripDown Project create a bigger, more powerful sound. The TripDown Project will be heading out on the road over the coming months – stay up to date by checking here. Influences Biffy Clyro, Foo Fighters, Muse, Nirvana, The Beatles, Supergrass, Incubus, the Doors
Just discovered these guys and have to say the opening track is killer and makes me want to jump around and into things!!! Second track Shimmer has a great chorus and bounces along very nicely and the final track bleeding is a fantastic musical ride with lots of different sections – all great guitar driven rock! Really look forward to hearing some more stuff by these guys! ITUNES BUYER REVIEW
