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.

Unsaid
The Seer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Whatever's said and done
I never meant to waste your time
Where did I go wrong
I hope you can explain
Don't know what else could I do
I'd like to know how long you keep this going on
These words unsaid
These steps undone
Have torn in two
What once was one
These thoughts unproved
These signs unseen
And lines that leave
Not in-between
I was so fine as long
We could play our parts
And didn't know what this would mean
Now it's too late to hide
Now we're too far to turn
We live to make it through our days
Whatever comes whatever's gone
Whatever's said whatever's done
We've torn in two what once was one
We've torn in two what once was one
In the song "Unsaid" by The Seer, the singer is reflecting on a relationship that has ended. They acknowledge that they might have made some mistakes and caused some issues but maintain that they never intended to waste their partner's time. The singer is confused about where things went wrong and wishes for an explanation. They feel that everything has changed, but they still feel the same way they always have. The singer is plagued by the words left unsaid, the things they didn't do, and the opportunities missed. They feel that those things have torn apart what was once a solid bond between them and their partner.
This song is an emotional reflection on a failed relationship. The singer seems to be grappling with a sense of regret, wishing they could have done things differently. They realize that their actions (or inactions) have led to the dissolution of the relationship, and they seem to be mourning the loss of what once was. At the same time, they recognize that they can't hide from the truth of the situation or turn back time to fix things. This song is a reminder that sometimes relationships don't work out, no matter how hard we try.
