From 7seconds.com:

"The new album is FINISHED. Our good friend David Houston has been handling the mixdown and has done an amazing job. It's loud, thick and powerful sounding, exactly what the 4 of us want to hear on a hardcore record.

The album will be called 'Our Core' and it will include 17 songs, coming in at just about 28 minutes long. Jesus, 'The Crew' might have been longer!

The current release date for the record (according to SideOneDummy) is August 10th! How cool is that? We were thinking it wouldn't come out until at least October.

We will be doing weekend West Coast shows throughout May, June, July and August. Once the album comes out, we'll head out for a U.S. tour, probably all of September and in November, we will be playing this year's Eastpak Resistance Tour (with Sick Of It All!) all throughout Europe.

And just so you guys know, the band had a big meeting this past weekend and it has been decided that we will devote a HUGE chunk of 2005 touring around the world. Why is that, you ask? Hey, 2005 marks the 25th year anniversary of 7Seconds. How lame would it be of us to sit back and do nothing?"
