Another great review for EPTA7 and Here Come the Freaks


This time, Doomed For Metal Reviews took a deep dive into the album — and what makes the review particularly interesting is that industrial metal isn't normally the reviewer's main territory.

Despite approaching the record from outside the genre, Here Come the Freaks clearly made an impression:

“One of the most catchy albums I've heard this year. Every song has a hook and there aren't any that are bad.”

The review highlights the album's combination of heavy riffs, clean production, electronic elements and contrasting vocal styles, while discussing several tracks individually.

The Fog is praised for its infectious riffs, while Kartoffeln stands out for its vocal flow, drums and chorus. Eptasystem is described as hitting particularly hard, and the title track Here Come the Freaks is singled out for containing some of the strongest and heaviest riffs on the record.

Moon Canvas also emerges as one of the reviewer's personal favourites.

For us, it's especially rewarding to see Here Come the Freaks connecting with someone who doesn't normally spend much time listening to industrial metal. Crossing those genre boundaries and creating something that can appeal beyond a specific scene has always been an important part of EPTA7.

A huge thank you to Doomed For Metal Reviews for taking the time to listen to the entire album and explore our world.

Epta7 is an Irish–Italian dark alternative project formed in Dublin in 2012, creating music that inhabits the space between industrial rock, post-punk tension, electronic decay, and cinematic urban horror.
With Here Come the Freaks, Epta7 move beyond their industrial-metal origins and build something more immersive: a dystopian sonic world where cities breathe, walls remember, identities collapse, and human beings slowly mutate under the pressure of noise, trauma, paranoia, and decay.
Rather than a simple collection of songs, Here Come the Freaks unfolds like a journey through a haunted metropolis — a living urban organism where memory infects architecture, neon lights watch in silence, and the “freaks” are not outsiders, but people transformed by the system that created them.
Blending distorted electronics, hypnotic rhythms, dark rock atmospheres, industrial textures, and emotionally charged songwriting, Epta7 create music that feels both cinematic and unsettling — suspended between urban nightmare and emotional collapse.
After first emerging in Dublin’s underground scene with their debut EP Eptasystem, Epta7 return with a renewed artistic identity: darker, more atmospheric, and impossible to confine within a single genre.
Epta7 is not just a band. It is a world where the city creates its monsters.
