Beme Seed

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Beme Seed was a New York USA based psychedelic noise rock band led by Kathleen Lynch formerly of the Butthole Surfers. They utilized guitar feedback and chanting to invoke a spiritual "panic inducing"[1] quality in their music. Trouser Press said of the band "Lacking the minimal organization of even the Sun City Girls, Beme Seed captures unique psychic qualities on its three opaque and unsettling records." The demise of Beme Seed in 1992 can be seen as marking the transition from the "underground music" of the 1980s to the "alternative rock" of the early 1990s.[1]
