MySpace a place for friends

“Time discovers truth.” – Lucius Annaeus Seneca

And so it has rung true with Charlotte, NC, metal band Seneca. Forming in 2002, time has proven a friend to the band hailing from The Queen City. Now having embarked on two full U.S. tours, Seneca continues to play shows across the Southeast. As they release their second full-length entitled Reflections, (once again mixed, mastered, and produced by Jamie King) the band aims to expose a new, matured evolution of intelligent, melodic, and ultimately punishing metal to the masses.



"Reflections" Reviews
"Melodic, prog-rock swept interlude lambs lay down alongside tremendously well-executed death and black metal riff lions." - 8 out of 10 (Decibel Magazine)

"Seneca tackles maniacal prog workouts, ornate Arch-Enemy-ish guitar work, and seemingly out-of-place pop-punk, yet somehow makes it all work...and that's the truth."- 3.5 out of 4 (Revolver)

"When Seneca get heavy, the ground shakes; when they shred, ears melt and splatter on the ground; and when the melodic chorus kicks in, you would swear somewhere a kitten died and went to heaven." - 4 out of 5 (Rave Magazine)

"Not only does this album shred, but has moments of beautiful serenity as well." - 20 Watts Music and Culture (8 of 10)

"Reflections, this present recording, is nothing short of a masterpiece." - Blood and Fire Magazine (5 of 5)

"...Spine crushing heavy metal." - Decoy Music (4 of 5)

"Reflections is a great album full of attitude, no bullshit, and most of all, extreme-metal at its best." - Frantik Magazine (4 out of 5)

"...the contrast between the different experimentations going on here will have you taking a closer look at each track on this multifaceted release and thoroughly enjoying it while you do." - (Bring On Mixed Reviews)

"Straight forward, no punches are being pulled, and no bullshit...nothing short of perfection." - 3.5 out of 4 (Hardcore Sounds.net)

"Seneca's serves to call out all the wanna-be's in the genre. Reflections may not change the world of metal but rest assured Seneca is close to doing so." - 9.5 out of 10 (French-metal.com)

"Wild and technical metal of the highest order, Reflections is a mixture of razor-sharp riffs, precise death-metal, point-perfect guitar sweeps, and a fundamental understanding of melody. Consider hearing this album an obligation." - 8 of 10 (MusicScan)

"Reflections is a perfect and solid album. I'll be waiting for their next one." - 8.8 out of 10 (Metal-Revolution)

"Smart ideas and arrangement with enough aggression, energy, and music that really makes you want to bang your head..." - 9 out of 10 (Metal Guide)

"...will have your head banging until your skull falls off the spine." - (Cleveland Leader)
