Seed State is the third and final album by British experimental metal band Head of David, released in 1991. Produced by Paul Kendall,[1] the album was recorded after two of the band members, the bassist Dave Cochrane and the drummer Justin Broadrick, departed to join their respective projects, God and Godflesh.[2] Cochrane was replaced by Bipin Kumar and Broadrick was substituted by a drum machine.[1] The band embarked an accompanying North American tour following the release of the album.[3]

AllMusic | [1] |
AllMusic critic Wilson Neate wrote that "the band rarely strays from the same path, laying down rigid, thumping drum programs and heavy, propulsive basslines as a foundation for abrasive guitars and harsh vocals." Neate also thought that "much of this material sounds slightly anachronistic," due to "the omnipresent drum machine."[1]
