Compact Disc (CD) + Digital AlbumSeeming's cavernous music fuses masterful songwriting with explosive and strange passion. The electronic duo's debut Madness & Extinction is a foreboding opus, equal parts chaotic rage and melodic sweetness. Standout tracks "The Eyes of Extinction" and "Goodnight London" are essentials on any 2014 mixtape for the black-clad set, and "The Burial" is the bleakest pop single you'll ever dance to. Seeming's members are both veterans of acclaimed darkwave act ThouShaltNot: Alex Reed (author of Assimilate: A Critical History of Industrial Music) and drummer Aaron Fuleki. A post-gothic meditation on insanity, history, and the earth in crisis, Madness & Extinction announces the bold arrival of Seeming.

lyrics
I thought I felt an earthquake. I thought I'd had a stroke when the city full of people turned to shadows made of smoke. Now huddled with my wireless and an atlas of the earth, I'll say my little words. Yes. I will spin the globe and watch it die and wish you all a fond goodbye, for what it may be worth. The bombers have been sighted over Paris, so now it's just a question of how long. And Pittsburgh, we'll remember you, and farewell. Buenos Aires, and no one's left to see the fires in Hong Kong. So goodnight London, goodnight. There goes Salt Lake City, where my best friend Kelly lived, and through the static, I can hear the sendoff in Madrid. And I kissed a girl from Moscow once, but now the Kremlin's ash. So please accept my little blessing song: I'll sing to all the lost as long as I'm alive - There goes Saigon in the mercy of the flash. And the stars above explode. eternal ballet from the black. And maybe this is fitting that we dance with light right back. And maybe this is fitting that we dance with light right back. I never got to know Australia. Sorry that I never wrote, Shanghai. Lower the curtain down on Memphis, and snuff out the candle on Mumbai.

It Will Come To You LP
by ACTORSsupported by 178 fans who also own “Goodnight London”
It's uncanny just how good Actors is at emulating that Post-Punk synth sound from my younger days. Each listen just gets better and better. I feel slightly ashamed for not having heard this album until a few short days ago.

Eyes On Backwards
by Dead When I Found Hersupported by 177 fans who also own “Goodnight London”
This album should be ranked very high in ranks of latest industrial albums, because it just crushes the competition. THIS is how it's done people. Menacing vocals, pounding drums and haunting electronics have no mercy on your ears and leave you with not one second of peace. Play this loud and do people around you a service.

All The Way Down
by Dead When I Found Hersupported by 162 fans who also own “Goodnight London”
That devastating and frightening atmosphere is mesmerizing. Probably the only DWIFH album I fell in love with. Expiring Time, The Unclean, Threadbare, Downpour, At Rest - these all are my favorites.

Saw Kanga last night in Houston , instantly was entranced by her sound , sucked me into the Kangakult vortex , so glad I got to see her live , should have looked into her sooner as Gary Numan was so supportive of her on the Revolution tour , oh now it’s time to catch up and get further involved
