Long before it was fashionable, somewhere in the red clay rolling hills of rural North Carolina where time stands still and mass media culture merely flies over, a young Jeff Clayton was stewing up a mash of crazed ideas inspired by late night horror flicks, Saturday morning wrestling and the scratchy old records of Alice Cooper and Black Oak Arkansas. It was a potent and hazardous mix that, when given the blasting cap of punk rock, ignited one of the most infamous and iconic bands in rock & roll; ANTiSEEN.

Now, almost forty years later, Clayton still leads the charge - a bloodstained barnstorm of southern-fried punk rock fury. Times and taste may change, but ANTiSEEN does not; diesel fumes, piss and vinegar - and damn all the rest. What was once topical has long since become dated... But not ANTiSEEN.

The toxic DNA bleeds thru the muddy roots. The genre-defying influence and heritage no longer can be denied. One needs not look very far to recognize it.

The spirit is eternal, the reality exceeds the myth...

The legend continues...
