SEETHER – New Studio Album ‘The Surface Seems So Far’ Out Now!

Rock music stalwarts Seether have released their ninth studio album, The Surface Seems So Far, via Fantasy Records. PRESS HERE to listen. The 11-track collection opens with the blistering lead single “Judas Mind,” which remains #1 at U.S. rock radio for the second week in a row. The chart-topping success for “Judas Mind” earns Seether their 10th No. 1 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Airplay chart and the Mediabase Active Rock chart, putting the South African quartet into an elite group of musicians who have achieved this milestone. To celebrate the release of The Surface Seems So Far, Seether has also issued a lyric video for new song “Lost All Control” – PRESS HERE to watch.

“Finally The Surface Seems So Far is out!” shares bassist Dale Stewart. “I feel this album is a big step forward for us, there’s a maturity to the music. It’s still very much Seether though. We’re really proud of the new record and I hope our fans enjoy it as much as we enjoyed making it.”

The Surface Seems So Far is an unapologetically aggressive record that continues the band’s legacy as champions of raw emotion while showcasing their trademark blend of aggression and introspection. Produced by frontman and songwriter Shaun Morgan with veteran producer Matt Hyde (Deftones, Slayer) as engineer and mixer, the new album is an honest and exhilarating journey through themes of melancholy (“Regret”), self-reflection (“Same Mistakes”), and emotion (“Dead on the Vine”), with catchy hooks and driving bombast emphasizing its many twists and turns. Songs like the chunky but atmospheric “Illusion,” released as a focus track in August, and the pulsating “Lost All Control” are massive additions to Seether’s impressive catalog. Morgan and his bandmates – Dale Stewart (bass), John Humphrey (drums), and Corey Lowery (guitar) – sound alternately confident and confessional, full of vitriol and vulnerability throughout The Surface Seems So Far, the follow-up to 2020’s Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum, which boasted three No. 1 hits. Track listing for The Surface Seems So Far is below.

Seether, known for their authentic and electrifying live show, is supporting The Surface Seems So Far on a co-headlining tour with Skillet that kicked off earlier this week. The 18-date outing continues tonight in Boston and travels across the U.S. until October 20th. Seether is also set to perform at select festivals this fall including Louder Than Life and Aftershock Festival. See below for full list of upcoming tour dates.

With five gold and platinum albums and two dozen Billboard Rock Airplay Top 10 hits including 20 No. 1s at U.S. radio (including their anthems “Broken,” “Fake It” and “Words as Weapons”) throughout a career spanning over two decades, Seether is as vibrant and relevant as ever. Hailing from South Africa, Shaun Morgan proudly draws inspiration from his grunge and hard rock roots, crafting a unique sonic identity that propelled the band’s Gold-certified American debut and continues to resonate deeply with fans worldwide. The rock quartet, who also founded the annual Rise Above Fest for nearly ten years to raise awareness for suicide prevention and mental illness, remains a beacon of integrity on The Surface Seems So Far, which promises to captivate both loyal fans and newcomers alike with its blend of memorable hooks, driving rhythms, and unapologetic rock spirit.
