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
Hiding under the ground. Is the world still turning round? Writing. I give names to the colors and shapes. Can I recall my lover's face? Sliding, are there a thousand animals near, or is the breathing that I hear the space from one to ten, from blue to white to grey? And when I stare into the eyes of extinction, where a memory's asleep, where it's unsalvageably deep, will I blend into the water or surrender and be truly. truly gone in annihilation's splendor? Hunt me. I'll be running stray from the pack. Blood and moonlight glow on my back. Want me. Come on and give me reason to sing. Turn me into anything. Confront me because the choice is clear as ice between the emptiness, concise and dead, or birth again: A chaos shaped like God. Come stare into the eyes of extinction with me and together we might see another burning of the dawn. When it's empty up in heaven, there among the last debris is the seed still green and tender of a life that's living on.

It Will Come To You LP
by ACTORSsupported by 178 fans who also own “The Eyes of Extinction”
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 “The Eyes of Extinction”
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 “The Eyes of Extinction”
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
