The album was released in November 1970, by Dunhill Records. It is the first Steppenwolf album with new bass player George Biondo. The albums numerical title reflects the fact that it was the bands seventh album release for ABC/Dunhill records (including the four preceding studio LPs, as well as two live albums). The album featured Steppenwolf's trademark rock and roll sounds and featured a cover of Hoyt Axton's Snowblind Friend, their second cover of one of his antidrug songs. Along with Who Needs Ya, it was one of two singles from the album which made the charts. The album track Renegade is autobiographical for lead vocalist John Kay, recounting his flight with his mother from the Soviet occupation zone to the West in 1948. The intro to Earschplittenloudenboomer is spoken by Kay partially in German.
