The Seventh Season’s path is not an ordinary one. The Seventh Season was established in Moscow, Russia (former Soviet Union) in 1972. Led by Yuri Batygin, in the years 1972-1975 the band performed at various stages, trying to find it's own sound. From 1976 to 1979 the band spent their time mostly recording numerous songs in their home studio. However, after 1979, the guys decided to call it a day. The Seventh Season restarted again nearly twenty years later, in 1998. At first, the band decided to record a full-length EP prior to any other action. They finished recording their first CD, Fall Within in October of 2002. Two compositions from this album, “Morning” and “Army of Reality,” were later recorded by Hill Top Records in Hollywood, Los Angeles, for their compilation album "The Land That I Love", which came out in September 2003. The official release date of The Seventh Season's first CD, "Fall Within" was chosen to be March 1, 2003. The CD quickly made it to various stores all over USA (Tower Records RIP, Streetlight Records, etc) and Internet stores such as Amazon.com and iTunes. “Fall Within” then started getting airplay at stations all over the world (USA, Germany, Japan, Canada, UK, etc) and reviews by various magazines internationally.

In May 2003, The Seventh Season started playing various stages all over the San Francisco Bay Area. In March of 2004, they made their way down to Los Angeles to perform live at the NY International Music Festival, which took place at the Fairfax Theatre in Hollywood. As time went on, The Seventh Season began to play at bigger clubs and Festivals. In the following months, a few interviews with the band were published in magazines and the amount of airplay of The Seventh Season increased. Meanwhile, new material started to pile up and it was time to get started on the next EP. During late 2004 and early 2005, the band began to intensely lay down track after track for their next CD. In March 2005 on Konstantin’s birthday, taking a break from the studio, Yuri & Konstantin made their way down to L.A. to appear on the Dirty Dave Show on 99.3 FM KCLA. During this 30-minute radio interview, the band discussed its past, present and future with the award winning DJ, Dirty Dave. During the months of March, April and May of 2005, The Seventh Season played numerous live shows all over California and gave one TV interview. The tour ended in early June with a 2-hour live performance on CMAP television.

Through summer of 2005, the band played a few shows, however most of the time was spent concentrating on recording of the upcoming album. In the month of August, due to the previous drummer (Virgil Gheorghiu) departure, Yuri & Konstantin quickly found themselves playing with the rock veteran Sergei Smet on drums. Finally a true sense of rock’n’roll was established. Continuing on with the same momentum, the band kept performing live and adding new material to its set. In late 2005, they started laying down tracks in the studio with Sergei on drums.

Taking a break from the studio, in February 2006, The Seventh Season recorded their first live DVD "Transposition" at Ex'pression College for Digital Arts. In the following months, they played various gigs, as well as the Emergenza International Rock Festival's Semi-Finals. In August 2006, the band released "Transposition" on Independent Records Inc. The release of the DVD was followed by the release of the sound track. These releases were followed by vast media coverage internationally, and airplay of the sound track.

In 2007, the great passion that the band members hold for their music multiplied by the countless hours of work spent in the studio gave birth to the long-awaited second CD, Liquid Water. During its making, many new recording techniques and instruments were incorporated into the recording. The versatility of the songs on the album could be attributed to the various circumstances in which the songs were written. The fact that the album was recorded over a long period of time made the recording of each song special, giving each song its own sound. Check for the constantly updated press reviews and radio airplay in the “Press” section. The summer of 2007 was marked by performances at various rock festivals all over CA, such as the “Red Marines” and “Shtopor.” During summer of 2007, the band also played their first-ever unplugged performance in Starbucks coffee. In August 2007, the band appeared on local FM radio and talked about their latest release.

To make a long story short, times are more exciting than ever. Rock’n’roll will never die.

“Recommended for people who've forgotten what they like about rock and for people who haven't.” – The Beat, 2003.
