Observe article, displaying extreme anger (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

seething

'displaying extreme anger' is the definition.

'observe article' is the wordplay.
'observe' becomes 'see' (I've seen this before).
'article' becomes 'thing' (I've seen this before).
'see'+'thing'='SEETHING'

(Other definitions for seething that I've seen before include "Furious" , "coming to the boil?" , "making one very angry" , "Boiling" , "very hot" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
