Blame Zeus is a female fronted Portuguese band, with sounds that range from Heavy Rock to Alternative and Progressive Metal.

Ricardo: Sandra and I were in a band together. When it disbanded in late 2010, we decided to form another one. With that in mind we invited Luis Carvalho, a guitarist we knew previously. Luis accepted and brought along a friend of his, bass player Diogo Vidinha, thus completing the initial line-up.

Ricardo: It's hard to give a precise answer to that one. The writing process for this album was done pretty much in three stages: the first one during the second half of 2017; the second one encompassing pretty much all of 2018; and the last one from January to April 2019. So, we're talking about roughly one year and a half, being that music and lyrics were written at the same time.

Ricardo: In the second half of 2018 we recorded a 5 song demo which we sent to some record labels we thought could realistically offer us a deal. We got some offers, of which the Rockshots' one seemed to be the best. We talked with some friends who were on the label and, as their feedback was good, we decided to sign with them. It was very important for us that this record was released via an international label, as internationalization is one of our biggest goals.

Sandra: I always wanted to be a singer, since I was 12 years old listening and singing to my big brother's records of Queen, but I see myself more as a rock singer. It so happens that a band is made of the influences of 5 different people, and we come together as alternative metal and progressive metal. I love it all the same and have been appreciating other kinds of singing it the last few years.

Ricardo: Definitely! First of all, because touring is a big part of this band's MO; secondly because, as mentioned above, internationalization is one of our biggest goals. Therefore, we're working hard to get a few tours together.

Ricardo: We played several shows supporting our previous album, Theory of Perception. As those shows went along we started to feel the need to have songs that were maybe a bit heavier and more powerful. When it came time to write new songs, having that thought in mind, we just let our creativity flow, in a very natural way, and the result was the ten songs of Seethe.

Paulo: Based on our experience of what the fans respond more vividly to, we had in mind that it should be heavier, in sound, than the previous 2 albums. We also knew we wanted a better production and studio sound. From those ideas, we composed the album together, with much attention to details, trying to grow it into something we ourselves would also love to hear.

Celso: We enjoyed the whole process! From writing the new material, rehearsing the songs, the studio time, working with our producer Ricardo on the final mix and master, working with Gustavo Sazes on the cover art, with Pedro from Unbox Films, who directed the video for "No"… all of these parts of the process had their challenges that made us grow personally and musically and lead us to meet new interesting people.

Celso: The lyrics are all written by Sandra. The music is a joint effort from all of us. Normally we bring some material we did home – a riff, a melody, a rhythm – and then we work it out together in rehearsal.

Sandra: We really love all the songs in this album, they really represent what Blame Zeus is all about, but if I personally had to choose one, I'd choose The Crown And The Gun, because it's pure pleasure to sing.

Celso: In our future we mainly want to keep making music and playing live, that's where our passion lies. Keeping that in mind, our next big goal is to tour abroad, we want to spread our message across the globe!
