Sevendust New Studio Album Chapter VII: Hope & Sorrow, With Special Guest
Appearances By Chris Daughtry And Members Of Alter Bridge

Out April 1st 2008 -Don’t Miss Sevendust As Part Of The First Annual Mayhem
Festival with Slipknot And Disturbed.

On April 1, 7Bros. Records in conjunction with Warner Music Group’s
Independent Label Group are set to release Sevendust’ seventh studio release
titled, Chapter VII: Hope & Sorrow. Produced by Sean Groove, Morgan Rose
& John Connolly in Atlanta, GA at Tree Sounds Studios. Hope & Sorrow will be
their second release on the band’s wholly owned record label.

For the first time since Animosity (2001), the band has collaborated with
outside artists. Chris Daughtry, a longtime fan of Sevendust’s, will appear
on the album as well as members of Alter Bridge. Chris Daughtry appears on
the track "The Past" while Mark Tremonti of Alter Bridge guests on "Hope"
and Myles Kennedy of Alter Bridge on "Sorrow." Sevendust felt bringing in
some outside friends added a healthy dynamic for the project. Additionally,
the band has signed on new management and feels like is a fresh new
beginning for 2008.

Sevendust has been announced as part of the first annual Rockstar Energy
Mayhem Festival, a riotous road show packed with some of hard music’s most
influential artists and a plethora of the genre’s most exciting young
voices. The tour is set to kick off July 9th at the White River Amphitheatre
in Seattle and will hit 30 cities in the U.S. and Canada between early July
and late August (full itinerary to be announced in the coming weeks).
Sevendust joins headliners Slipknot and Disturbed along with Dragonforce,
Mastodon, Airbourne, Black Tide, Five Finger Death Punch and more.

"It was a challenging and exciting to write. We’ve spent so much time with
angst over our career that is was nice to in a good head space for a change
while working on this project." Morgan Rose, Drums

"There was a really relaxed vibe in the studio this time around. I think
Hope and Sorrow shows a different side of Sevendust. Heavy but yet still
growing in a direction that explores a lot of different things musically for
us. I’m excited about the album." LaJon Witherspoon, Vocals
