EFRIT is the newest single from SEUM off their upcoming split with Temple of the Fuzz Witch titled “CONJURING” – due for release in Fall 2024 via Black Throne Productions
The band comments: “We had our first drug experiences as kids with Moroccan Hashish. Cheap, mixed with weird stuff – the urban legend claims it was tires – it was a way to escape our daily teenage boredom but it could also take you on the worst paranoid trip.
Éfrit is about those days, we used this cunning Arabic demon as a metaphor and it inspired us to write one of our heaviest song to date: Éfrit chose us as her sons.”

SEUM is a bass-only sludge band from Montreal (Canada) formed by 3 doom veterans formerly in Lord Humungus (Gaspard – vocals), Mlah! (Piotr – bass) and Uluun (Fred – drums). Adding a ferocious punk energy to their New Orleans inspired sludge, the band is known for its intense live performances, workaholic attitude and nihilistic, tongue-in-cheek lyrics.
SEUM means Venom in Arabic and is French slang for disappointment and frustration:
No guitars.
The band released two albums, Winterized in June 2021, DOUBLE DOUBLE in February 2023 and is about to head to Europe for the Problems tour before releasing a split album with Temple of the Fuzz Witch on Black Throne Productions in Fall 2024.

LYRICS:
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
