1. The Seer is a progressive death metal band from Newcastle. Present in The Seer's music are elements from many of the various subgenres within metal, with several songs containing orchestral arrangements as well.
The band was founded in 2006 by Ryan Huthnance (Mortal Sin, Kindred, Chrome Bison) as a solo project, with the intention of creating much more aurally complex and intense than that which he had played in previous bands. Over the course of 2006 and 2007, at least 20 songs were written for the debut album “Prologue”, of which 10 were chosen for the final tracklisting.
As is evident on “Prologue”, The Seer draws from a wealth of influences, from the raw energy of thrash and death metal, to the much more refined and grandiose elements of classical music. On top of the cacophony of blast-beats and growled vocals, extremely melodic and tasteful, yet still face-melting solos are also present to complete the package.
In 2008, the album was recorded, mixed and mastered at Ryan’s home studio “Emissary Studios”, but the final product was deemed to be unsatisfactory - and thus “Prologue” was re-recorded from late 2008 into early 2009. In mid-2009, Ryan was contacted through Myspace by Ben Rommell (ex-Grim Demise), who offered his services as a second guitarist. This offer was the catalyst for The Seer’s evolution into a live act. Enlisting the services of close friends Allan Swaffield (ex-SoulTremor, Chrome Bison) on bass, and Pete Downtong (Viral Millennium, ex-Kindred) on drums, the band was now complete.
With these new members, the songs changed to suit each new member's personal style, so 5 of the tracks from the original "Prologue" CD were chosen to be re-recorded yet again for an EP of the same title - resulting in them sounding bigger and better than ever.
After several local shows, the band chose to continue without Pete, and found a replacement in Luke Cook (Mortal Sin, ex-Killrazer, ex-Vaticide), who then chose to leave the band after only a few months. Ben was then replaced by Rohan Macdonald (ex-Soultremor), and Luke was replaced by Mark Van Tongeren (The Paradox Unseen)
With the “Prologue” EP only representing The Seer in it’s embryonic stages, and with all the band members being in their early to mid-20’s, the band can only go upwards from here. With a fully functional line-up and a completed EP, The Seer have their sights set on main support slots, and eventually, the world stage.

New Day
The Seer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The summer's gone the autumn leaves
Fall around you
The end of a beautiful start
Now tears your fragile world apart
Nothing you can
That hits into your face
And all the valuable posessions
Are buried in an unknown place
The bitter truth behind your eyes
There is no time for soothing lies
And I cannot change everything
But if you're tired shut your eyes
I'll drive your car
Into a new day
And dry the tears you cry
Be right beside you
When you open up your eyes
To a new day
There's a dark silence in this place
Spread over all the endless days
And all around you
Like someone stopped the world around
There is no motion there's no sound
And nothing you can
do
These lyrics from The Seer's song "New Day" describe a person's struggle to come to terms with a challenging situation that has disrupted their peaceful world. The morning comes like a thief, stealing away the joy of a beautiful summer and replacing it with the sadness of autumn leaves falling around them. The end of a beautiful start tears their fragile world apart, leaving them with nothing they can do to change the situation. Valuable possessions are buried in an unknown place, and the bitter truth behind their eyes is that there is no time for comforting lies.
Despite the situation, the singer offers to help the person move forward by driving their car into a new day. They will dry the tears and be right beside them when they open their eyes to a new day. The world may feel motionless and silent, but the singer offers a glimmer of hope in this bleak moment - that through the act of opening their eyes to a new day, something positive may emerge.
Overall, "New Day" is a song about the struggles of life and how difficult situations can strip away what we value most. It also highlights the importance of having someone there to support and comfort us during these dark moments, and the hope that a new day can bring.

This is a great band that has produced some fabulous music. It still remains a small, regional band. Meanwhile I was bombarded with "Gangnam style". As George Carlin said "People are dumb"
