ABOUT THE ALBUM

For many U.S. metal fans, Seventh Avenue may feel like a hidden gem — but in Europe, especially in Germany’s rich power metal scene, they’ve long been respected as a top-tier melodic force.

Between The Worlds (originally released in 2003 on Massacre Records in Germany) captures the band at their creative peak. Their sound sits comfortably alongside the greats of European melodic power metal — think the speed and lift of Helloween, the precision and drive of Gamma Ray, and the soaring melodic sensibility of Stratovarius. Add in touches that fans of Blind Guardian and Rage will immediately recognize, and you begin to understand the caliber of this release.

What truly sets Seventh Avenue apart is their ability to balance technical musicianship with unforgettable melodic choruses. The songs are fast, tight, and powerful — yet deeply accessible. Tracks like “A Step Between the Worlds,” “Tales of the Forgotten Dreams,” and “Wings of Dawn” showcase dynamic arrangements, dual-guitar harmonies, and commanding vocals that stay with you long after the final note. The album also features an epic power-metal interpretation of Survivor’s “Burning Heart,” transformed into a high-octane anthem that feels right at home alongside the band’s original material.

Lyrically, Seventh Avenue carries a thoughtful Christian worldview, but without sacrificing the intensity or edge that power metal demands. The themes are reflective, philosophical, and emotionally driven — fitting perfectly with the album’s grand, melodic scope.

Now, for the first time ever, Between The Worlds receives an official USA release through Retroactive Records as part of the Metal Icon Series. This edition has been newly remastered by Rob Colwell, giving the album greater clarity, punch, and depth while preserving its original character. Housed in a jewel case with a 12-page lyrics booklet filled with photos and artwork, this limited pressing of just 500 units is designed specifically with collectors in mind.

For longtime European power metal fans, this album has always been a standout. For American listeners discovering Seventh Avenue for the first time, Between The Worlds is the perfect introduction — melodic, energetic, and undeniably anthemic.

For fans of Helloween, Gamma Ray, Blind Guardian, Rage, Stratovarius!
