      As enigmatic as R.E.M.'s early work but as black-clad and
      pissed off as Metallica and Alice in Chains, The Seeded
      Planet bring back the Rock, but not in the superficial way
      that a band like Hinder does. If Pearl Jam had given way to
      their more esoteric side, then the three tracks on the Seeded
      Planet's debut EP would provide a sneak peek as to what
      would've sounded like.

      Mysterious yet brimming with passion and wounded emotion, the
      Seeded Planet focuses on texture as well as muscle. In other
      words, although the band can jam as loud as System of a Down,
      they're not just about surface noise. The opening track,
      "Nameless," has stomping riffs that Nirvana would've
      salivated over, but there's an undercurrent of ethereal
      atmospherics that gives it added depth. When the guitars
      begin to truly roar, "Nameless" is quite breathtaking. I
      can't fathom what Erik is singing here; however, I do have a
      feeling that, judging from the apocalyptic tension in the
      song, it has something to do with his experiences in Iraq,
      which earned him a Purple Heart.

      "Mexico" and "Whispering" aren't as boisterous, but they,
      too, are unsettling. At first, I was lamenting the lack of a
      lyric sheet but it's probably more fun to sit back and try to
      interpret the cryptic messages that the singer is
      communicating. "Whispering" even has some eerie Middle
      Eastern touches that are seemed to be haunted by Iraq.
      What The Seeded Planet have presented here is an intriguing
      puzzle that takes shape after each captivating listen.
