I used to work on my university campus radio station in college. We used to talk about current events around the school, any news around the surrounding town, and played requested songs for students, something our school surprisingly allowed. I remember a very weird couple of months where students who tuned into the show constantly requested a song called โSee You After, Babeโ, a pop song by some one-hit-wonder group called Symmetry Icon, the dumbest name for a band Iโve ever heard. But that song was huge around October and November of 2008. As one of the campus radioโs DJs, I had to play that song over like a hundred times in two months. I heard it everywhere, in malls, gas stations, on real radio stations, and I think even on MTV.
Something was weird about that song, but I couldnโt remember exactly what. I tried Googling the song and band, but nothing came up in the results for either. Not even YouTube had a single clip of the song.
I frequent an alumni Facebook page for my school, and I posted a question on there asking if anyone remembered the song. The post got a bunch of likes and a lot of people started hitting me up about things they recall about Symmetry Iconโs mysterious hit. One girl wrote to me that she couldnโt remember how it went, but that the lyrics were kind of awkward and unconventional. Another classmate told me that the song was so catchy that it was stuck in his head for like weeks.
A week went by since I had posted on the alumni page, and then I got a message from a guy that used to live in the dorm next to mine named Matt. Matt private messaged me asking if I found any leads about the song. I told him no. He told me that he had nothing but bad memories about that song. Here are his messages verbatim (*NOTE: Paul was his dorm roommate):
โyea dude I havenโt heard that song since that yearโฆ I remember paul would always crank it up in the room. I canโt remember how it went, but I remember it was kinda unusual and not a typical pop song, but everyone loved it. I couldnโt stand it. Paul REALLY loved it tho, he was always humming it. And then one day, I never heard the song again, and Paul was acting totally strange. He was always partying and outgoing and shit but around that time he got super depressed. One day I asked him what was up, and he said that he couldnโt get the song out of his head and that itโs gone forever now and heโll never be able to hear it again. Idk if you know now dude, but Paul is still not doing so well, heโs got no job, no girl, hardly ever talks to anyoneโฆ I message him every now and then and he just says how he misses 2008 when life was good. I told him to see a shrink, but he says that wonโt help, he just needs โsomething new to listen toโ. Heโs a part of that alumni group, and I know heโs seen your post, and Iโm worried heโs gonna snap dude. Can you talk to him?โ
I messaged Paul soon after, asking him how he was.
Me: โhey paul! Long time no see man. How you doing?โ
Paul: โSAL!!!!! Yooooo! Good to hear from youโ
Me: โhowโve you been bud?โ
Paul: โIโm okay, just trudging along as always.โ
Me: โthatโs good!โ
Paul: โI saw what you put on [the alumni page]. Dudeโฆthat song was my life. I miss it so much, I cant believe itโs gone.โ
Me: โWell Iโm sure someone can find it!โ
Paul: โNah manโฆitโs gone. Thatโs how the world is, things come and go. SI made a song that was alive, and now itโs dead. Man I miss it. Those were the daysโ
Me: โ? Uhโฆโ
Paul: โI know im actin weird, Matt always says I need to get some help but I dont. I just need to hear the song again, and it sucks knowing I never will.โ
Freaked out, I stopped talking about the song after that and just resumed making small talk with him until we both signed off. The next evening, not even 24 hours later, I come home from work to see people posting on Paulโs Facebook wall with โR.I.P.โ and all sorts of condolences; Paul killed himself that day. I was horrified to hear that he had done it by stabbing himself in the face multiple times.
And the thought that I was one of the last people he talked to made me feel even worse.
Matt messaged me that day, too: โIt was because of the song. Iโm sorry, Sal. Itโs not your fault.โ
While I think now it wouldnโt have been in the best taste to do it, right then and there I thought it would be a great idea to find โSee You After, Babeโ somehow and put it up on Paulโs wall. Just for some sort of closure. I spent the entire following week asking Yahoo Answers, posting on music forums, and commenting on YouTube videos of 2008 pop songs. Nobody knew anything about the song or the band. I had put my email up on some of these, but heard nothing until last night, December 27th.
In my inbox was a message from someone named โBrad Hoskinsโ. The subject was โSong by Symmetry Iconโ. Attached to the email was an .mp3 file, and in the body was this:
Hey Sal,
I saw your post on [forum] inquiring about Symmetry Iconโs song, โSee You After, Babeโ, and thought Iโd send you an email to clear things up and perhaps dissuade you from your search. I am sending this to you with the hope that you will keep things discrete, as there are not a lot of people who know anything about this song and should the nature of it be released, it wonโt exactly be hard for any higher-ups to pinpoint who spilled the beans. But, you seem like a nice guy and I donโt want you to do something youโll regret.
Symmetry Icon was a young three-member pop group that started up in 2007 and came out with an album by 2008. Hard to believe 2008 is close to being a decade ago, but obviously you know how a lot of pop music was in that year: it was catchy, not too technical, upbeat but not very hardcore club-ish yet. Kinda cheesy synths and sounds. Look at Billboardโs Top 100 for that year, youโll see what I mean.
Well, anyways, I was working as a part-time engineer for a sort of smaller record label that was trying to find a big break. They thought they found it with Symmetry Icon, because the group was very talented, especially for being so young (all three were 19-21 age). It was crazy how they could just start playing around on their instruments and just come up with a tune catchier than anything else the label had produced.
While Symmetry Icon was signed on for our label, their manager was an outside hire that came with them like a package deal. This guy was the definition of weird, he looked like a stereotypical slimy businessman. He was super close with the band, though, and they wouldnโt drop him no matter what deals the label dangled in front of them. At every recording session and every meeting, that weird manager was right there, whispering into the bandโs ears. It felt like behind every song and every decision was that creepy guy. The band was even comfortable telling us that for the most part, their manager was coming up with the ideas for their songs.
So, one day, the band misses a recording session because the lead singerโs girlfriend is caught in a car accident that destroys her face. I had seen the girl before, she was absolutely beautiful, but after the accident she looked like a monster. No right eye, lips gone, a forehead that caved in. It was horrific, and she knew it too, so she unfortunately ended up killing herself, though Iโm not sure exactly how. We were all very bummed about it at the studio.
The lead singer for the band, Andrew, was devastated. We told him to take some time with any new material, but at the next session we saw him he came in with a new song the band had written themselves. They had given their creepy manager the slip. When we asked where he was, Andrew just said, โHe can go fuck himselfโ.
Well, the song they brought in was โSee You After, Babeโ, something Andrew had written in light of his girlfriend getting disfigured. It was catchy and upbeat, but unlike anything the band had recorded for us. They handed us the lyrics, and we were taken aback by how odd they were. Iโve been holding onto a copy of them for years now:
[Verse 1]
I just wanted to be a big name
For you.
But I got caught up in this craziness
Without you.
We made a deal with him,
He said heโd rise us up
In exchange for something small.
[Chorus]
But he took yourโฆ (x3)
[Verse 2]
At first it was just little things.
And then it came to this.
I didnโt think heโd take something
That Iโd actually miss.
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
It wasnโt an accident.
Iโm so sorry.
Iโll see you after, babe.
[Chorus]
Depressing stuff, yeah? At the studio we thought so, too. Plus, the chorus was four words and an incomplete sentence that went off into a four-note riff, so we all doubted its potential.
But we still recorded the entire song, mastered it, and sent it to the higher-ups who loved it and thought itโd be a big hit.
It went out to quite a number of radio stations, who played it like they would any other single. After a week, DJs asked us to interview the band, but Symmetry Icon wanted nothing to do with the press.
One day during another session, their creepy manager barged into our studio and started screaming at Andrew and the band for releasing the song without his approval. Andrew started yelling right back about how he didnโt want any of this, how he just wanted to play music and not get drawn into anything too serious. The manager was freaking out, saying the band would be nothing without him and how Andrew was the one who made the deal in the first place. I specifically remember Andrew saying, โIt was supposed to be just blood from us, not anyone else!โ.
The manager stormed out of the studio, going on about how he was going to ruin the song and the band for this. Said that he was gonna make anyone who liked the song โend up like his [Andrewโs] girlfriendโ. We never saw that guy again.
After that fight, the weirdest shit Iโve ever seen in the industry happened in regards to that song. People were really getting into it. We even had huge companies trying to purchase rights to have the song in their commercials. For a month, we heard it on the radio all the time. But suddenly, we got calls from radio stations saying that their listeners were acting weird about the song, it was the only thing they ever requested and they called constantly to hear it. One stationโs DJ kept calling us daily to meet the band to talk about their โlife-changingโ track. He even left voicemails SCREAMING at us to meet the band.
It started scaring the higher-ups at the label. People were getting calls, death threats, and all sorts of horrible shit just to hear a stupid pop song. It was like it was a drug. Symmetry Icon dropped off the face of the earth, they wouldnโt respond to our calls or anything.
Soon, the label and studio were both visited by these government types who wanted to see if everything was okay with our operation. Our CFO was interviewed about the nature of the track, and was told that something weird was going on with the people who were exposed to it for too long. I never heard exactly what the CFO was told, but the rumor was that people were offing themselves because they couldnโt get it out of their heads. It affected some people more strongly than others, but those who did killed themselves in a very specific way that freaked the label out and pulled the song.
With the help of those government guys, the label pulled โSee You After, Babeโ and removed any trace of its existence. The staff was never told exactly why, but for a lot of 2008 we heard stories of agents going to radio stations and stopping DJs from playing the track, even arresting those who persisted. As if this wasnโt disturbing enough, we later heard that all three members of Symmetry Icon had killed themselves not long after the song was taken off the air. Apparently, they had sliced up their own faces with shards of glass and bled to death. They left a note saying that theyโd never be able to top โSee You After, Babeโ and there was no point in trying. They were haunted by the song, and used to glass to try and โdig it outโ.
Iโm not sure if you believe in the supernatural, but I am telling you right now that there is a shady reason why you canโt find that song anywhere. Itโs some bad voodoo, it makes people do some fucked up things to themselves. I know you want to do this for your friend, and Iโm sorry for your loss, but trust me when I say you will never find the full song. That shit is buried.
For a long time, we were told to immediately let the company know if the song was played anywhere. I heard it in a dressing room at a mall one time when I was out shopping around mid-2010. I recorded it on my phone at the time to show my bosses, but kinda never got around to showing them. The issue hadnโt been discussed in a bit over two years, and I never heard it again after that. I like to listen to it every now and then and think over all the things that happened because of it.
My recording is attached to the email. Sorry in advance about my cough in there. It wouldโve been nice to hear the whole thing but I honestly was too afraid to stick around and listen to it.
Only listen a couple times and then never open the file again. Whatever happens with this song, it kicks in when you listen to it repeatedly. Please be careful.
And if you ever hear the full song out in public, get the hell out of wherever you are hearing it. Like I said, I donโt know what you believe, but I for one am damn sure that Symmetry Icon made some sort of deal with a devil, and this song is the punishment for breaking that deal. Please be careful.
Best of luck,
-Brad Hoskins
I downloaded the file and listened to it immediately. I recognized the song the second I heard it. I have no idea whether or not Hoskins is telling the truth, so I put the clip up on YouTube and sent it to some friends to see if they recognize it
[1]. They all agree this was the song, including Matt.I donโt know what to make of this. I mean, it is kind of catchy in an out-there kind of way, and Iโve listened to it a few times just because it is kind of enjoyable and reminds me of my days in college.
Does anyone else remember โSee You After, Babeโ from 2008???
I justโฆI need to hear the whole song again, and it sucks knowing I never will.
THIS EXPERIENCE HAS BEEN RECORDED BY THE STAFF AT TECHNOHORROR

The melody sounds like C-E-G-B. Don't know about the bass riff, too quiet, but it sounds the same a few octaves lower.
Can someone else look into this? Because it feels like it should be FACE. It's kinda dissapointing if it's not.

The higher pitched synth is C-E-G-B, but the lower pitched, stuttering synth is F-A-C-E.

Then matching the synths gives F-C, A-E, C-G, E-B, so the chords are F-A-C-E.

Musician here, what you're seeing are called 5ths. If you reverse it from the C-E-G-B, they're called fourths. 5ths are "half octaves" from the root note of the chord. Kinda makes you want a 5th of Whiskey, eh ๐

So i decided to hop on my guitar and record A shortened acoustic version of what i feel the song would sound like using F-A-C-E for all the chords. It's F-A for the verse and F-A-C-E in order for the chorus. I'm still new to guitar so no apologies if i'm not as good as John Mayor.
EDIT: I Deleted it. I was getting bad vibes.

Symmetry: the quality of being made up of exactly similar parts facing each other or around an axis.
Icon: a painting of Jesus Christ or another holy figure, typically in a traditional style on wood, venerated and used as an aid to devotion in the Byzantine and other Eastern Churches.

How does symmetry = anti? I never heard those used as synonyms in any way. Sorry if I'm just not getting it. :(
Another user posted this(clown-penisdotfart), I like this theory a lot:
"So is the Symmetry Icon a pentagram? It has rotational symmetry, mirror symmetry, bilateral symmetry."
VLDT ยท 39 points ยท Posted at 22:54:04 on January 1, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
I like the pentagram interpretation, probably better than mine.
Symmetry (bilateral) implies two like halves facing one another with the exact same features, creating perfect opposites. Symmetry also refers to the notion of parallel correspondence between things like phenomena, ideas, literary devices. It's a stretch, but you could think of it as "left is anti-right", or Mirror Universe if you're nerdy.
tired_commuter ยท 4 points ยท Posted at 23:03:53 on January 6, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
But 'anti' is opposite and symmetry is balanced proportions or identical sides. I really can't see the jump from symmetry to anti at all there, sorry.
VLDT ยท 4 points ยท Posted at 01:07:30 on January 7, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
When you look at an image of yourself in a mirror, are you not in at least one sense looking at the exact opposite of yourself? Is the situation not also an example of symmetry?
It boils down to semantics. I'm not sure why you apologized, have a nice day.

I love mysterious songs. For me the biggest mystery is how they managed to whipe it completely out of existence. It reminds me to a creepy manga I once stumbled over. It was about a recording of a song sung by a woman after her death. There existed only one copy and the song was very catchy too.

I listened to it...not sure if it's Doppler Effect but if you listen up real close and proper, you hear some synth pop...but if you listen a bit far from the sound and with some background noise, you'll hear someone laughing slowly with a deep and sinister voice.

I totally understand. Do you think I should see a doctor about it, or something? It's been happening a lot lately, can't seem to pinpoint what's triggering it. At first it was tolerable, now it's a nuisance. Gettin real tired of my arm just straight up falling off in the middle of a conversation, specifically the left arm.
alexsmithfanning ยท 4 points ยท Posted at 07:28:06 on January 1, 2016 ยท (Permalink)
Assuming your left hand is your sausage flicking hand, letting up on the sausage flicking should help a little bit. Depending on the force of your jerking, it can cause muscles to tense up resulting in a resting period a subsequent detaching of the arm.

TBH i didn't read it i just watched the video and read the comments.
It's just pretty silent + OP is coughing over it nonstop for whatever reason. I recorded it and cleaned it with adobe audition. It's a pretty generic electro track that starts with the lyrics "
BodyBut he took your" or something like that. I even checked the spectral frequency to see if at least OP build some graphic into the song..but nope.I could spend the day searching for the vocal sample because I'm sure it one some sample library pack but, meh.

It wasn't freaky until I listened to the video. I've definitely heard that weird riff before. The short clip was so familiar to me that I started humming along the first time through. I've had it stuck in my head before, and I know it. It's such a distinct feeling of off.
I think I'm... I think I should close the video tab. It's looping.

I asked siri to guess the song and she has given me 3 replies till now
Some random song that has kinda the same beats but not that.
Some random song that doesn't sound a bit like that.
This song doesn't exist.

It is these kinds of stories that truly terrify me. I don't know why. Any story involving songs with weird creepy lyrics, weird episodes from TV shows that no one seems to remember, used video games or vinyls that have some creepy aspect to it... I don't know why, stories like this just give me the most horrible, inexplicable heebie-jeebies.
Definitely not sleeping tonight. It's 11 PM and I want to listen to the YouTube clip but I'm too afraid...

I used to have the CD. (Yeah, I'm a freaking Luddite when it comes to music.) It disappeared. I'm not sure when.
I suppose one of those government agents could have sneaked into my apartment and taken it (though how would they know I had it?), but it's more likely that a friend who is more into pop music stole it. I can think of a few people who had been in my apartment that I haven't heard from lately.

This is like the ring but with a song and it can sneak up on you. I didn't even read the lyrics for fear that it would get stuck in my head. Also this also reminds me of Las Ketchup, their hit song was said to invoke the devil or something like that. We were told not to listen to it and it was pretty hot topic in the early 2000s. Haven't heard much of them since then

It really did. I tried thinking of other songs in my head to get it out, which wasn't working at first, bc that F-A-C-E riff would just layer itself over the other song, but then I tried "When You Were Young" by The Killers, and I immediately forgot everything about how "See You After, Babe" sounds. But now "When You Were Young" is stuck in my head, and has been for almost an hour. EDIT: Thought I might mention, I am NOT going back and clicking the link again just because I forgot how it goes. I am NOT falling for that.

Not going to lie, I got a really bad vibe listening to that track on YouTube. Almost a Deja-vu sort of vibe like I've heard the track before, but in my head I know and feel that I haven't. A part of me feels unexplainably driven to look further in to this, but the rest of me feels like there's a spot in the back of my mind, the same spot that is telling me I've heard this before, that's telling me it's something I need to leave alone.

So I did a little research in finding what their band name means and suprisingly found this:
Symmetric icon is a name often given to symmetrical strange attractors, which Spirofractal creates using complex polynomials, formulas that involve calculating powers of complex numbers. They are called icons because a single, isolated, image is generated, in contrast to tiles (or symmetric quilts), where the pattern produced can be endlessly repeated without any seams showing.

Hey... Does anyone else feel like OP's following Paul's footsteps? The dude who sent him the MP3 file said to NOT listen to it repeatedly... if he would bad this would happen. He says how it sucks he'll never hear the whole song again, if anyone has the full version. RIP OP

Listened again. Somehow this song made me feel more happy and nostalgic than anything.. although that stuttering synth does have an uncanny aggressive feel to it that I wouldn't expect just from the timbre. That is a little weird. It's like it's drilling itself into your head..

One thing to wonder about: If the song was that popular, surely SoundChoice, Chartbusters, or Music Maestro would have released a karaoke version before it was banned. I used to be a DJ, I had a ton of obscure karaoke songs in my system because generally speaking at the exact moment a song is released to radio the karaoke companies get the rights to produce a karaoke version and release it, meaning that even if a song bombs at radio there are still karaoke versions available and alot of KJs just add everything that comes out and keep it in their system forever even if it was never a hit. I got out of DJing and sold my equipment in 2013 so I can't look to see if I ever had it in my system...but I am half tempted to text my friend who's still running karaoke if HE has it. I'm just afraid his answer will be "yes"

revolverlolicon ยท 4 points ยท Posted at 20:46:20 on December 31, 2015 ยท (Permalink)
You don't think that their cursed song was a hit so that it could reach as many people as possible? The fact that see you after, babe has mystical effects shows that the devil had a huge hand in it even without their permission. So wouldn't it then follow that he would also make this cursed song their biggest hit as punishment? Not to mention the fact that he took the singer's girlfriend's face as payment, which means that the deal probably wasn't complete until after her damage was done.

I'd say that inaaace plugging their novel is a bit too much, yeah. But what I'm saying is that that kind of thing is pretty successful on this subreddit, because while the point is to suspend your disbelief, it's also just a place for amateur writing. Again if you want some real stuff I would definitely recommend /r/letsnotmeet, the authors are very genuine about what they write and a lot of the shit actually ends up being scarier than the stuff that gets posted here while still being pretty grounded in reality.
