Album Review
By: fatback
Date: 30 Jun 2009
The Seventh Son of A Seventh Son is the seventh studio from the boys. This concept album is based on the western myth of the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter or the seventh son of a seventh son possesses heightened occultic abilities. The album is based on the fantasy novel Seventh Son by Orson Scott Card that tells the story of such a child, who from the moment of this birth is subject to manipulation by the forces of good and evil, and must come to terms with his powers and how to use them.

Infinite Dreams
By: fatback
Date: 30 Jun 2009
The basic premise of this second Chapter takes a look at the Seventh Sons' father, himself a Seventh Son, and has visions that he does not understand and tortures him. The lyrics explore the theme of ultimate reality and what may exist beyond death, in much the same way as the last verse of the song ˜Hallowed Be Thy Name". But unlike in ˜Hallowed", the theme of the meaning of the meaning of life and the possible answer of reincarnation is suggested.

So what do you believe?

Can I Play With Madness
By: fatback
Date: 1 Jul 2009
The story continues on with the father of the Seventh Son, who is also a Seventh Son, who tries to learn the future from an old prophet with a crystal ball. The prophet looks at his crystal ball, but the young man sees nothing there ("... there's no vision there at all!"). The prophet looks at the young man and laughs, because the young man is "too blind to see" the vision. But more importantly, he's too blind to see what's really going on - in that he's being cheated and there really is no vision there. Maybe he also tries to seek help from the prophet in order to come to terms with his visions and nightmares. He apparently thinks that he’s becoming mad, although he does not believe what the prophet says and turns violent.

The Evil That Men Do
By: fatback
Date: 1 Jul 2009
The title of the song is taken from Marcus Antonius's speech while addressing the crowd of Romans after Caesar's murder (Act 3, scene 2, "The Forum") in William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar: "The evil that men do lives after them; The good is oft interred with their bones." Bruce Dickinson often repeats this before playing the song, but in reverse. Its topic is similar to the song "Infinite Dreams" from this album in that it also seems to relate to whatever is beyond death. It could be some sort of flashback to the conception of the Seventh Son of the Seventh Son. The character telling this story is apparently the first Seventh Son, but it is not clear with whose daughter he "slept in the dust". Likewise, the "slaughter of innocence" may refer to the loss of the virginity. But whose?

The Clairvoyant
By: fatback
Date: 1 Jul 2009
"The Clairvoyant" relates the reflections of the Seventh Son of a Seventh Son on his life and powers. He is now a fully-fledged seer and has learned to control his visions. However, these become rapidly overwhelming and he eventually confuses what he really sees with what he sees with his mind's eye. Death is now for him the only way out. Did his powers kill him or did he commit suicide?
