Guaranteed to get your foot tapping, this song has genius lyricism encompassing Grant and co.\u2019s trademark story-telling element. <i>\u2019Take A Man\u2019s Body\u2019<\/i> features the most venting of all the tracks; <i>\u201dYou take a man\u2019s body, you take a man\u2019s soul\u201d<\/i> is repeated with aggression.<\/p>\n<p>That only leaves title track <i>\u20197 Deadly 7\u2019<\/i> which has a cooler, softer vibe and oozes nostalgia. The delayed vocals give it a holy feel, as if vocals were performed by a church choir. Although it isn\u2019t the most easily listenable of tracks, it differs considerably from the others, showing us the extent of capability amongst the members and a range of relevant influences. <\/p>\n<p>Four tracks that epitomize the extent to Sean Grant\u2019s narrative-writing ability.
