Rock heavyweights Seether are gearing up for the release of their highly anticipated ninth studio album, The Surface Seems So Far, with the arrival of their powerful new single, “Illusion.”
Following on the heels of the album’s Top 10 rock radio hit, “Judas Mind,” “Illusion” showcases another side of Seether’s sonic spectrum.
“‘Illusion’ is one of the highlights for me on this album,” says bassist Dale Stewart. “With its hypnotic opening riff and haunting melodies, this song is a step forward for us while staying true to the Seether sound.”
Celebrating Achievements & Embarking on New Chapter
The release of “Illusion” coincides with another significant milestone for the band. Pandora recently awarded Seether with a Billionaire Plaque, commemorating over 4 billion career streams on the platform.
The Surface Seems So Far: A Raw & Emotionally Charged Journey
Due out September 20th via Fantasy Records, The Surface Seems So Far promises an unapologetically aggressive yet introspective journey. Produced by frontman Shaun Morgan with veteran producer Matt Hyde (Deftones, Slayer) on engineering and mixing duties, the 11-track collection explores themes of melancholy, self-reflection, and emotion, wrapped in Seether’s signature blend of catchy hooks and driving guitars.
