"Pure energy, innovation, and intensity....The logical and probable heir to the ICP throne"-- - Kevin Morales
"Lively show, coordinated rhymes and dialogue, lots of action, and very crowd friendly"-- - JP the Proffessor
"Rounding out the hip hop acts and closing the show was 7th Layer. They provided a creative set of entertaining hip hop music that was both thought-provoking and danceable. All in all, it was an impressive close to a great night in Philly." - Bodogmusic.com
"7th Layer has created a interesting but dangerous playground out of their musical fantasies and actually have some interesting ideas to take it to new levels. This CD leaves you impressed, it’s serious while also being nutty, fun, and a bit bizarre." - Crazy John
"You guys could start a cult" - Don DiBiase
"Redeeming Faith," is like a breath of fresh air. There's a lot of energy to be found on this disc....corpses, serial killers, psychotic people and, believe it or not, it's all about having a good time. That's the 7th Layer style" - Paul Autrey www.ballbusterhardmusic.com

This story told in reverse makes this the finale in the 7th layer anthology, but only the begining of things to come.

Bio
Since 2004 the realm of the wicked, the realm of the controversial, the realm of shock has been held high by 2 individuals. Mal Havock and Filth. These two individuals along with the production stylings of Lil D had taken the underground hip hop, acid rap, and horrorcore scenes by storm. With their stage show, known to include fire, a casket, 12ft grim reapers, stage dancers, and confetti finale, 7th Layer since day one had been recognized as a force.
In 2008 7th Layer decided to expand their live show to include a full band. This addition had taken them from the underground, to opening for many different national acts, larger stages, and presenting a sound that transcends age, sex, race, religion and genre.
Now in their new form, 7th Layer has become more of a super group of talent consisting of Kar and G on guitar (former suture 7 and current el broosha), media man Crazy John on bass (Oshradio.com and the ragazine director), D-Tail on drums (current Effigy), Goat-Rides riding the boards, and several DJ's cutting it up. With these elements in place 7th Layer now sets out to not only take the scene by storm, but redefine musical classification as a whole, and have started this journey by opening for such National acts such as Powerman 5000, Bionic Jive, Thrill Kill Kult, ABK (Any Body Killa) and many more.
Oh & if you want to know, yes they do still kill people, and no they wont ever stop. So I hope you remember one thing, dont harm others or others will harm you!
