Dead Ear
SEUM
DEAD EAR Dance Build a pyre Friends Drink from my lips All angry and depressed (We) were 16 years old friends Leaving the norm For the woods Heavy bag full of drugs Smell of fuel Aversions flames In the woods Sway Around the fire Crave Another drink When your best friend becomes a threat I lost my ear Dread Remaining embers Pain I lost my ear

Problems
SEUM
PROBLEMS Run to the bus, fall, break my back still miss it Next one in 45 minutes FUCK Got to wait, roll a joint Wind blows it in the snow Phone rings, my date has STD FUCK I got 666 problems but a riff ain’t one War, Climate crisis, bullshit Politics I might just hang myself as well FUCK Stress, age, work and love All these problems, got them all Shitting at Traxide... What? There is no TP? FUCK I got 666 problems but a riff ain’t one I got 666 problems but a riff ain’t one

Éfrit
SEUM
ÉFRIT I was born rubbing the wrong lamp Since day one Éfrit took my hand Teenage depression, black metal and flames In a cloud of cheap hashish Just slice me my friend My blood dripping, dripping, dripping... Éfrit chose me as her son Years have passed Éfrit is still there As the day turns into night I am smoking my brain My soul sinking, sinking, sinking.... Éfrit chose me as her son Down, cast out In the maze of my head Smoking for a way out A way out from myself Éfrit chose me as her son

Conjuring is an opportunity to invoke and overcome some of our intimate issues, past (disability in “Dead Ear”, addiction in “Éfrit”) or present (aging in “Problems”).

When Black Throne reached out to propose us a split with occult kings Temple of the Fuzz Witch, we took some time to reflect on how we could make this project cohesive while being so different musically - digging back to past traumas was our answer to get into the right creative mood. Inspiration flowed naturally from there and brought our heaviest songs to date.

We are excited to share that different side of SEUM with you today.
