Outspoken and way out loud, 7 Year Bitch testifies in defiant fashion with anger, amps, and attitude. But take it from the critics who have cheered the quartet from their independent beginnings: "...Mean, riff-and-bass-driven punk rock with furious vocals (that) never wear thin because Selene Vigil always has something to say, 7 Year Bitch epitomize their genre and make a noise like no one else" (Rolling Stone); "The band powers... terrorist lyrics over its own blend of fat, confident power chords. Singer Vigil expels lyrics in ornery packs, occasionally letting loose roars that would send Pantera running for cover" (Los Angeles Times); "If 7 Year Bitch have an agenda that extends beyond their desire to rock, it's about subjecting the expression 'women in rock' to the same kind of subversion that they've visited on the word 'bitch'" (Boston Phoenix).

From unassuming beginnings in Seattle in 1990 and a self-released single, to now with "GATO NEGRO" — their Atlantic debut — the band has survived the death of original guitarist Stefanie Sargent, toured the US and Europe extensively, appeared in three films, outlived pigeon-holing trends, grown as musicians and songwriters, and still maintained the cornerstone of their musical style: a refreshingly raw, full-throttle rock n' roll.
