Capturing fear, anxiety, terror and despair, SEEING THINGS reflect on current social issues of apathy and injustice. Through their lyrics, they confront these issues directly and encourage the listener to face their own inner demons.
Ever since its inception, SEEING THINGS was forged to bring a fresh new sound to the stage. The band emits a distressing energy of downtuned mania fuelled by ever-present paranoia 妄想症. With their raw, unfiltered energy and their unyielding commitment to their message, SEEING THINGS invites you on a journey of self-discovery and social awareness. Today, the band unlocks their new Cyberpunk 2077 inspired power single “Soulkiller“, with the official visualizer above!
In their short time as a band SEEING THINGS have already landed significant editorial support from Spotify (All New Metal, Metal Charge, The Core) across previous releases and have surpassed 650,000 Spotify streams over the past year. Furthermore, the band have had support from Deezer, landing both the Metalcore and Deathcore playlists.
Expounding more on their new single, guitarist Martin Zálešák explains: “Ignorance may be bliss in the short term, but it is a surefire way to fail in the long run. By turning a blind eye to the issues that do not directly affect us, we trap ourselves in a narrow, self-serving world, doomed to make short-sighted decisions.”
“It is only by opening our eyes and hearts to the struggles of others as our new single ‘Soulkiller’ suggests, that we can truly succeed in the long term. The ‘Soulkiller’ (inspired by the Cyberpunk 2077) is a program which is able to separate the body and soul of a person. Life, death, and in between – glass. It seems as though our minds have been already disconnected and we are now trapped in a state of apathy, with the only hope being that enough people will awaken and break free from this state. Amidst the emerging European energy crisis, it’s disheartening to see how many people are willing to let their neighbors suffer and die just to save a few dollars. Perhaps we have lost our way as a society if wealth is considered more important than human life.”
Soulkiller lyrics:
Take off the blindfold
And cut of the ties
Emerge from consciousness hidden behind your eyes
Deconstruction of the body and mind
Lost in the grey
Disconnect or die
Overdose (Overdose)
On the lie
That I held so close
I don’t wanna let go (wanna let go)
The cycle will take control
Endless entropy
Bleed me dry
Neon headlines bridge
our divide
Puppet masters bring
Our demise
This is suicide
Are we out of time?
(Just lie to me, just lie to me)
Did we lose our minds?
(Just lie to me, Just lie to me)
(Just lie to me, Just lie to me)
Comatose (Comatose)
Unaware what’s behind the doors
Endless entropy
Bleed me dry
Neon headlines bridge
our divide
Puppet masters bring
Our demise
This is suicide
Are we out of time?
(Just lie to me, just lie to me)
Did we lose our minds?
(Just lie to me, just lie to me)
(Just lie to me, just lie to me)
(Just lie to me, just lie to me)
Another bolt straight to the head
Another drink until I’m dead
Into the freefall we suspend
Another nightmare that
We can’t end
Are we lost? (Are we lost?)
Suspended in this freefall
Are we lost? (Are we lost?)
Suspended in this freefall
Suspended in this freefall
Are we lost?
Suspended in this freefall
