After nearly a decade since their last full-length album, "In The Absence Of Light", Finnish atmospheric metal outfit THE MAN-EATING TREE are back with the intense track "Seer". The highly anticipated new single is a dark and brooding return that promises to satisfy fans and newcomers alike.

"Seer" is the first taste of the band's forthcoming album, "Night Verses", which is set to be released on April 11th via Noble Demon. With a revamped lineup and a fresh sound, THE MAN-EATING TREE are ready to take on the next intense chapter in their history.

The band's signature blend of atmospheric beauty and heavy, crushing riffs is on full display in "Seer." The track delves deep into themes of fear and inner turmoil, with founding member Janne Markus commenting, "The song is about the endless struggle with one's own fears. Seers, who live in all of us. A seer, who draws his strength from the prevailing negativity."

The band adds: "We can’t wait to be able to finally share this first song with everyone, and fairly soon the whole album! 'Seer' is a direct, heavy, even angry song at the beginning of a new, just like the band itself at this point!"

The song is released alongside a brand new music video directed by Petri Marttinen and Kore Creative

THE MAN-EATING TREE's return comes with a renewed sense of purpose and a desire to push the boundaries of their sound. With a lineup featuring former and current members of legendary bands such as Ghost Brigade, Poisonblack, Mors Subita, Entwine and more, the band is poised to deliver their most powerful and dynamic album yet.

"This is not only the new gathering for old friends. This is a new musical direction, allowing the boundaries to be pushed wider and further. We are very much looking forward to presenting this to you", Janne Markus comments on the band's activation and new beginning.

"Night Verses" will be coming out on April 11 via Noble Demon and is now available for pre-order at THIS LOCATION
