" ...12 tracks that demonstrate their guttural, pummeling sound in an intimate, divey live setting."

“Fast, funny and never completely satisfied, 7 Year Bitch epitomize their genre and make a noise like no one else.”
Rolling Stone, 1994

“The four-piece stops sexist shitheads cold with a double shot of super sharp riffs and extra-large egos that doesn’t leave any room for sniveling about male superiority in the scene or anywhere else.”
SPIN Magazine, 1994

“Hollywood’s best screenwriters couldn’t invent a more perfect punk band for the ‘90s than Seattle’s 7 Year Bitch.”
The Los Angeles Times, 1994

“7 Year Bitch is a band that will outlast the current ‘girl with guitar’ chic”
The Philadelphia Inquirer, 1994

Seattle's legendary grunge band, 7 Year Bitch will release their first album in nearly 20 years. Due out on January 15, 2016 via MOE Recordings, Live at Moe is a live concert recorded in 1996 at Seattle’s Club MOE. Recently discovered in the vaults, the never before heard recordings not only serves as a testament to their riveting, raw and electric energy, but also to the diversity of their catalog. Formed by drummer Valerie Agnew, vocalist Selene Vigil-Wilk, guitarist Stefanie Sargent and bassist Elizabeth Davis- Simpson, the album features the classic 7 Year Bitch lineup with Roisin Dunne on guitar, and was produced by Scott Blum.

With their three studio albums, 7 Year Bitch released some of the best and resolutely bombastic records unleashed during the 1990’s, heavy as all hell rock albums loaded front to back with equal parts dynamic songwriting and a healthy dose of punk rock fury. On Live at Moe, 7 Year Bitch rips through a career-spanning set which includes ferocious live renditions of audience favorites “The Scratch”, “Lorna”, and “M.I.A.”, as well as deeper cuts such as “Crying Shame” and “The Midst”.

Billboard premiered “Miss Understood” today. We encourage you to post & share.

7 Year Bitch was, from the very beginning, hell bent on carving their own distinct path. Less concerned with being feminist trailblazers than simply being an incredibly kick-ass rock band, they ended up being both. Live at Moe will be released on CD, digitally and limited edition 180 gram red & black split vinyl. Pre-Order is available now.
