from Barnsley, South Yorkshire, That formed in 1980. Seventh Son was put
together by brothers Kev and Bri O’Shaughnessy in 1980. The idea for Seventh Son
was hatched in the King George Hotel in Barnsley, which in the 70’s and 80’s,
was the hangout for Barnsley's ‘different’ crowd who listened to the pubs
excellent jukebox pumping out Zeppelin, Purple, Floyd, Hendrix, Bowie, T-Rex,
Pistols, Clash, Damned etc. The Punk explosion had stirred people into forming
their own bands as Seventh Son became part of metal's answer to Punk 'The New
Wave of British Heavy Metal' (or N.W.O.B.H.M). The band recorded their first
demo at Streetlife Studios in Barnsley in July '82. The band now felt ready and
strong enough to record their first single Man in the Street and was released in
December 1982 on the band’s own Rising Son label gaining reviews in
Kerrang.
