I have always been impressed with Seethe’s eclectic mix of sounds and how he utilizes different genres to tell a story. Each song seems to have something for everyone, from an edge of industrial, to the heaviest of nu metal and threads of rap, djent, and trap, and that’s without even mentioning the way he can manipulate his voice, or his lyrics!
Seethe just dropped a new track today, entitled “Feather,” and it’s a certified banger, venturing into the more hard rock/alternative metal oriented side of the artist. The music itself is cleaner, less harsh and distorted than songs such as “Can’t Breathe,” and lends itself to the fact that Seethe can take on any genre and own it.
See for yourself. Check out “Feather” here or on Deezer and Spotify.

Alternative/trap metal artist Seethe has released his latest album, Delenda: A Black Rose on the Epitaph. Carrying the listener through the subjects of mental health and a real-life hospital stay, Seethe has bared his soul to the world in these nine tracks.
Delenda: A Black Rose on the Epitaph is an interestingly composed record, musically. It is comprised of a style that is not only heavy, but purposefully harsh and glitchy, with anguished vocals that resonate with rage and frustration. This raw and unfiltered emotion is contrasted with the occasional catchy, more melodic break, featured mostly in the choruses. The play of an almost lighter offering amongst the darker standard grabs the attention, keeping the ear intrigued.
The atmosphere that Seethe has created is often jarring, sometimes uncomfortable, an echo of the true story of his struggles with his mental health and the decision to sign himself into a psych ward. However, the overall message of Delenda: A Black Rose on the Epitaph is one of hope. By sharing his own personal story and tackling a topic that most seem content to ignore, Seethe is breaking an invisible barrier. He is telling his listeners – and everyone else – that there is no shame in the struggle, that it does not mean you are weak, and that asking for help is the strongest action you can take.
The two singles showcase the lowest and highest points of this autobiographical story. “Can’t Breathe,” the second track on the record, is the hopeless beginning, the bleakest moment, feeling overwhelmed and trapped, both by the four walls of the hospital and your own mind. However, by the time one reaches “Linear,” track eight of nine, a sense of balance is slowly being gained, a clearer headspace in which you are starting to take control of your life, having a better idea of what to do for your version of normal…because each of us is different, and what works for one doesn’t necessarily work for all. The songs in the middle are the journey between despair and the start of catharsis.
Delenda: A Black Rose on the Epitaph is a triumph. Seethe grants his listeners a glimpse into the shadows, a foray into territories not often explored, and he reveals a message of solidarity, support, hope, and victory, both big and small. He has expertly crafted his music, lyrics, and vocals in the shape of the story he is sharing. This is a 2023 must-hear album.
You can listen to Delenda: A Black Rose on the Epitaph wherever you stream music!

Please note: I am not certain about the last four dates, except Sadler Ranch (because I found the show listed on their website). Everywhere else, including Saliva’s official site, has the tour ending on the 22nd. I think the other dates were added later, and maybe the lists haven’t been updated? So I just went with the tour poster.

Tomorrow, July 22nd, is a big day for Seethe. The alternative/trap metal artist is releasing not one, but two new tracks!
First is “Linear,” the latest single from Seethe’s forthcoming album Delenda: A Black Rose on the Epitaph. With “Linear,” Seethe continues the personal journey started with “Can’t Breathe.” Now free from the psych ward and that sense of being trapped, both literally and metaphorically, “Linear” addresses the writer’s introspection upon being released. The song takes on the challenges of altering both the direction of your life and your mental state. In a way, “Linear” is hopeful, though the slower paced beat and raw, anguished vocals speak all too clearly of the agony of struggling for, in Seethe’s own words, “normality and balance.”
The second drop is Seethe’s collaboration with twelve other vocalists, entitled “The Cypher of the Mourning Star.” According to Seethe, “I wanted to give back to those that have helped me and put me on along the way.” All of the featured artists shared the common ground of metal, but each brought his own unique style to the track. With an overall trap metal feel, the variations of delivery range from heavy metal growls and semi-melodic cleans to full-on rapping and metalcore-worthy screams. It is five minutes and twenty-two seconds of artists working together and throwing down, and their enjoyment shines through, the pride in their project evident.
You can presave “Linear” and “The Cypher of the Mourning Star” at the links below. Both songs release everywhere tonight at midnight!
