The band has released eight studio albums; their most recent, Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum, was released in 2020.[2] As of 2023, Lowery is the longest serving lead guitarist Seether has had as a four piece band. Formation as Saron Gas (1999–2001) The band formed in South Africa in May 1999 under the name Saron Gas.[3] Consisting of frontman, vocalist, and guitarist Shaun Morgan, bassist Tyronne Morris (who left the band in December 1999 and was replaced by Dale Stewart in January 2000), and drummer Dave Cohoe, the band released their first album, Fragile, in October 2000 under Johannesburg-based independent record label Musketeer Records.[3] Despite the region's focus primarily on pop and indigenous music, the band found success, and eventually caught attention of American record label Wind-up Records, who gave them a record deal to begin releasing music in North America.[3] Upon signing to the label, they were told they needed to change their name due to its similarity to sarin gas, and switched to calling themselves Seether, after the Veruca Salt song.[4]Disclaimer releases (2002–2004)In August 2002, Seether launched their first official album, Disclaimer, which earned the band three singles: "Fine Again", "Driven Under", and "Gasoline", in which only the first managed significant success. After the release of Disclaimer, the band toured constantly. Near the end of the Disclaimer Tour, they decided to return to the studio to record their second album, a project that had to be delayed by almost a year, since at that time Seether was on a world tour with Evanescence. "Fine Again" was also included in the video games Madden NFL 2003 in 2002 and 1080° Avalanche in 2003.Following the release of Disclaimer, the band toured continually in order to increase sales and gain name recognition. A planned second album was delayed for nearly a year when Seether was selected as the support act for an Evanescence worldwide tour. Seether reworked their acoustic ballad "Broken" into an electric ballad with guest vocals by Amy Lee of Evanescence. Favourable audience response led the band to record the revised version, with Lee on vocals. The track, along with a new song entitled "Sold Me", was featured on the soundtrack for the 2004 film The Punisher, and became a major success for the band, particularly in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia. A romance developed between Lee and Morgan during this time.Morgan has stated that the reworking of "Broken" was due to the wishes of the record company rather than those of the band.[5] An alternate version of the original album, with many of its songs remixed or re-recorded, was released in June 2004 and entitled Disclaimer II. The alternate version also featured eight extra tracks.Karma and Effect (2005–2006)Seether's follow-up album, Karma and Effect, was released in May 2005. Originally titled Catering to Cowards, the name was changed due to the record label's demand.[6] Karma and Effect debuted at number 8 on the US Billboard 200 album charts and was certified gold in the US and Canada. The album spawned three singles, "Remedy", "Truth", and "The Gift". "Remedy" reached number 1 on the US Mainstream Rock Charts, Seether's first number 1 hit.Seether released an acoustic CD/DVD set titled One Cold Night, recorded at the Grape Street Club in Philadelphia, on 22 February 2006. Morgan had been suffering from a stomach ailment, and decided to do an acoustic performance of their set rather than cancel the show. The exclusion of "Needles" and "Burrito" from the album is due to the label's desire that it contain no obscenities.[7]Guitarist Patrick Callahan's departure from the band was announced on 15 June 2006. His last performance with them was on 3 June.[8] Pat was later interviewed on a radio show in Philadelphia where he said his departure was not anything musical, but he and the singer Shaun had a "personality" clash and were not seeing eye to eye, and just couldn't work things out, but was still very friendly with the other two members. Pat also did not like certain band decisions. One example was the band being on the Punisher and Daredevil soundtrack in which he did not like the lineup of bands they were associated with. Shaun Morgan himself later commented on Pat's departure:"Um... relieved a little... actually a lot. He was the guy in the band that was always our naysayer, and he was the negative energy as far as writing. I personally have no love lost, which is weird for some reason 'cause he was my friend for four years. But when he walked out, it kinda walked out with him."[5]Morgan entered a rehabilitation program for what he felt was "dependence on a combination of substances" in August 2006, which forced the band to cancel a tour with Staind and Three Days Grace.[9]Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces (2007–2009)Seether performing in 2008Shaun Morgan, prior to the next album's release, claimed that it would be more diverse than previous efforts. Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces was slated for an August 2007 release but was delayed until 23 October 2007 due to the suicide of Morgan's brother, Eugene Welgemoed. The album debuted at number 9 in the Billboard 200 album charts, and sold 57,000 copies in its first week. Its cover artwork featured "Candice the Ghost", and was illustrated by David Ho. The first single, "Fake It", reached the top position of the US Mainstream Rock Charts and Modern Rock Charts, and held that spot for at least 9 weeks on both charts. It became the theme for WWE's No Way Out (2008). "Rise Above This", written for Eugene Welgemoed, was released as a single and reached the No. 1 spot on the Modern Rock Tracks chart and No. 2 on its mainstream counterpart, Mainstream Rock Songs. The final single from the album was "Breakdown", the video for which was released on 12 November 2008 after a delay from its original scheduled release date of 23 October. Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces won Seether's first South African Music Award in the category "Best Rock: English", as well as their first MTV Africa Music Award for "Best Alternative Artist".A tour launched in support of the album in early 2008 lasted much of the year. Troy McLawhorn of Dark New Day, Evanescence, and doubleDrive was hired as a touring guitarist on 15 February 2008. Bands Seether shared the stage with on the tour included Three Days Grace, Finger Eleven, Breaking Benjamin, 3 Doors Down, Skillet, Red, Papa Roach, Flyleaf, Econoline Crush, and Staind. McLawhorn was afterwards made an official member of the band."No Shelter" appeared on the NCIS Official TV Soundtrack, released on 10 February 2009, and a version of George Michael's "Careless Whisper" was made available for purchase as a digital or mobile download.[10] The song was reportedly covered as a joke,[11] in which the band turned an "80s pop ballad" into a hard rock/metal song in response to Wind-up's request that they record a Valentine's Day song. The music video for "Careless Whisper" premiered on 15 June 2009, and the song is included as an additional track on the reissue of Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces.Seether supported Nickelback on their Dark Horse tour in March and April 2009. Shaun and Dale confirmed in an interview on 2 March 2009 that, after the Nickelback tour, Seether would take the rest of year off to write and record the follow-up to Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces.[12] The band nevertheless gave performances through the remainder of the year, which included a date in Okinawa to play for American troops as part of a USO tour on 23 and 24 May at Camp Schwab, and then in MCAS Iwakuni on 26 May for the US Marines. Seether also made appearances at a number of festivals during the summer, including sets at the Chippewa Valley Music Festival and the Quebec City Festival, before the tour's conclusion at The Big E Festival, West Springfield, Massachusetts, on 4 October.Seether covered the song "I've Got You Under My Skin" on the Frank Sinatra tribute album His Way, Our Way, which came out on 7 July 2009.Holding Onto Strings Better Left to Fray (2010–2013)Seether performing in 2012The band spent several months recording in Nashville, Tennessee[13] with producer Brendan O'Brien,[14] then resumed touring in April 2010 with the intention of returning to the studio "in the first week of June"[15] to complete the new record. Drummer John Humphrey confirmed in August that recording was completed, and the album was in the mixing process. He said that the band believed this album to be their best work, and that the songs are "very strong, melodic, and heavy at times".[16] Morgan confirmed the album's completion in September, and gave the expected release date as early 2011.[17] A new song, "No Resolution", was debuted on 4 September 2010, during a live show at the DuQuoin, IL State Fair.[18][19] McLawhorn and Humphrey, in a radio interview, announced that the new album would be titled Holding Onto Strings Better Left to Fray, and that it would be released in May. The album's first single, "Country Song", was released on 8 March in the US and on 4 April in the United Kingdom,[20] and the new album was released on 17 May 2011.[21] Seether reached their highest position on the US Billboard 200 Charts when Holding Onto Strings Better Left to Fray rose to the Number 2 position. It also reached number one on the US Rock Albums, US Alternative Albums, and US Hard Rock Album Charts.[22] Their single-week sales of 61,000 records was their best since Karma and Effect sold 82,000 copies in 2005.[23] Billboard named Seether the No. 1 Active and No. 1 Heritage Rock Artist of 2011.[24] A remix EP of the Holding Onto Strings Better Left to Fray album, titled Remix EP, was released on 7 February 2012.Troy McLawhorn's departure from the band and return to Evanescence was announced on 8 March.[25][26] Seether performed live in Cincinnati, Ohio on 10 May, and in South Bend, Indiana on 11 May. Both concerts were recorded, and released as a limited edition CD set for each individual city.[27] The band played main stage at the Uproar Festival alongside Avenged Sevenfold, Three Days Grace, Bullet For My Valentine, and Escape The Fate, and supported 3 Doors Down on their European tour from November to March.On 3 September 2013, Seether announced the name of a compilation album, titled Seether: 2002-2013. It was released on 29 October 2013 as a 2-disc album featuring some of the band's greatest hits, unreleased demos, soundtrack songs, and 3 all-new tracks, including a cover of Veruca Salt's "Seether" (the song that the band is named after).[28] Seether: 2002-2013 also contains two new recorded songs ("Safe to Say I've Had Enough" and "Weak") and was produced by Brendan O'Brien.[29] The band released a 15-second demo clip for the song "Safe to Say I've Had Enough" on loudwire.com.[30] They also carried out a small, semi-acoustic tour of Europe and South Africa.On 30 November 2013, Seether released a 3-track single titled "Goodbye Tonight", featuring Van Coke Kartel & Jon Savage. The song is also featured on the deluxe edition of their follow-up album Isolate and Medicate.[31]Isolate and Medicate (2014–2016)Seether performing at Rock am Ring in 2014In a 2013 Twitter interview, bassist Dale Stewart confirmed that the band was writing songs for their next album. During an AmA (askmeanything) interview on Reddit.com, Shaun Morgan stated that the band was "In the studio getting ready for our new album..."[32]On 24 April 2014, it was revealed that the album Isolate and Medicate would be released on 1 July 2014, with the lead single "Words as Weapons" slated for release on 1 May 2014.[33]On 29 April 2014, Bryan Wickmann was announced as the new touring guitarist. Wickmann was the band's long-time guitar tech, as well as Isolate and Medicate's cover art creator, and a former art director of Schecter Guitar Research.[34][35]On 17 May 2014, Seether performed their first single, "Words as Weapons," from the album Isolate and Medicate, live at the Orbit Room in front of 1,700 fans. The band released a music video for the album's second single, "Same Damn Life," on 30 October 2014. The video was directed by Nathan Cox. In late May and early June, Seether announced European tour dates in September, along with several stops in the UK. On 7 July, Seether kicked off their summer tour with 3 Doors Down.Poison the Parish (2016–2018)On 13 September 2016, Seether shared pictures of them recording a new album on social media. They announced in November that they were to release their seventh album in May 2017. A countdown timer later started on Seether's website, counting down to 23 February 2017.Morgan appeared on Octane on 22 February to discuss the new record, entitled Poison the Parish. Jose Mangin stated that the new material is looking to be "harder than anything they've done". The album was released through Morgan's label Canine Riot Records.[1] Three singles, "Let You Down", "Betray and Degrade", and "Against the Wall", were released in support of the album, all charting significantly on the Billboard Mainstream Rock songs chart.[36]In May, July, and August 2017, the band toured throughout the United States with American hard rock band Letters from the Fire, adding guitarist Clint Lowery (Sevendust, Dark New Day) to the touring lineup.[37] They recorded a cover of "Black Honey" by American post-hardcore band Thrice during a live session for SiriusXM in June 2017. In February 2018, Clint Lowery returned to Sevendust to begin touring and promoting their album All I See Is War. His brother and former Dark New Day's bassist, Corey, took over his duties as Seether's touring guitarist. The band then supported Nickelback on their eight-week Feed the Machine European and UK tour. Before the tour ended, Lowery became a full-time member of the band. On 20 May 2018, Seether played in their hometown of Johannesburg for the first time in six years.[38] On 6 June 2018, they released an acoustic version of "Against the Wall," along with an accompanying music video.[39]Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum and The Surface Seems So Far (2019–present)In June 2019, John Humphrey revealed that recording had commenced for their upcoming eighth studio album. On 24 June 2020, the band announced their eighth studio album, Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum, set for release on 28 August 2020 through Fantasy Records. They also released the first single of the album, "Dangerous".[40] Translating to "If You Want Peace, Prepare for War", the album features 13 new tracks, and was produced by Morgan himself in Nashville, Tennessee from December 2019 to January 2020.

The band will release their ninth album titled The Surface Seems So Far on September 20, 2024Musical style and influencesSeether's musical style has been described as post-grunge,[45] alternative metal,[46] hard rock,[47][48] and nu metal.[49][50][51] The band is heavily influenced by American grunge groups such as Nirvana[52] and Alice in Chains.[52] AllMusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote "Seether's lead singer/songwriter, Shaun Morgan, is an unabashed, unapologetic worshiper of Kurt Cobain, using Nirvana's sound as a template for Seether."[53] Seether have also been influenced by Deftones[52] and Nine Inch Nails.[52] Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum in particular takes heavy influence from the bands A Perfect Circle and Deftones. Band members Shaun Morgan – lead vocals, rhythm guitar, piano (1999–present); lead guitar (1999–2002, 2006–2008, 2011–2018)Dale Stewart – bass, backing vocals, acoustic guitar (2000–present)John Humphrey – drums, percussion (2003–present)Corey Lowery – lead guitar, backing vocals (2019–present; touring 2018–2019)来自南非,目前以L.A为事业中心的Seether是个四人的摇滚团体,主要的曲风为结合Post-Grunge以及另类摇滚的重金属摇滚,他们在2002年发行首张专辑Disclaimer之后就大获好评,首支单曲「Fine Again」让他们受到了摇滚客的瞩目,於是在隔年他们开始到世界各地巡回演出,也因此结识了Evanescence的女主唱Amy Lee,而后更有了[Borken]的合作机会。这首单曲是先发表在台湾没有上演的电影「The Punisher」之原声带当中,而在2004年6月份,Seether将他们原本的Disclaimer专辑当中的曲目稍做改编,加入四首全新作品以及与Amy Lee合作版本的「Broken」单曲,集结成为这张Disclamier II专辑。专辑当中最受注意的莫过於与Amy Lee合作的「Broken」,除了非常classic的抒情摇滚吉他音色之外,Seether主唱Shaun Morgan标准的沙哑呐喊式的摇滚唱腔,配上Amy Lee空灵却又Powerful的嗓音,完全的搭配互补,让人血脉贲张却又不失内心深层的感动,是非常难得的Post-Grunge式的抒情摇滚单曲。而事实上,在这张专辑里面也可以找到由Seether主唱自己所诠释的原版「Broken」,两造比较之下,原版是属于沧桑感觉较为浓厚的男生版,而对唱版更是能藉由Amy Lee的声音,将每一个音符渗入聆听者的摇滚灵魂当中。另外一支值得推荐的作品则是他们的成名单曲「Fine Again」。狂野的电吉他音墙再加上与吉他对飙的主唱沙哑唱腔,完全是标准的Post-Grunge风格,旋律上还有Post-Grunge难得一见的友善调性,对于刚入门的摇滚初学者来说,也是非常不错的入门选择。此外,「Driven Under」及「Sympathetic」也都有着类似的特性,也难怪他们会是如此受到欢迎的团体。如果你喜欢Nickelback、Switchfoot、Evanescence、Match Box Twenty或是Creed这种比较”Friendly”的Post-Grunge的话,Seether绝对是你必须要认识的一个摇滚组合,而这张由Disclaimer进化出来的Disclaimer II,也将会是你认识他们的最佳途径;此外,对於刚刚想要认识摇滚的朋友,Seether绝对也是个不会让你有太多”童年阴影”的摇滚组合。Seether乐队同Creed(主义乐团)、Evanescence(伊凡塞斯)、Drowning Pool(毙命水池)、12 Stones(12顽石)等团体是同门伙伴,入主专门发掘摇滚新团体大厂Wind-Up,成为主推之重点摇滚乐队,共推出过3张唱片和一张单曲EP,歌曲很有力量.主唱的声音沧桑而具有爆发力。 发展历史 2000乐队以原名“Saron Gas”发布了名为《Fragile》的专辑,关于为何该专辑发布后乐队被在美国的唱片公司要求更名为Seether,在南非有传言称是9·11事件的影响。2002乐队改名Seether后发布了首张官方专辑《Disclaimer》,包含三首单独发行的曲目《Fine Again》、《Driven Under》和《Gasoline》,但只有第一首在管理层得到一些反响。这一年,Seether成为了最时髦的乐队。该专辑发布后,乐队开始了不间断的巡演。巡演结束后,乐队决定重返录音棚开始第二张专辑的录制。因此Seether和Evanescence的世界巡演日程不得不搁置一年。值得一提的是,《Fine Again》是游戏《NFL 2003》和《1080 Avalanche》的配乐。2003-2004《Disclaimer》发布后,乐队不断通过巡演增加专辑的销售量以及自身的人气,前面提到,由于乐队赶制第二张专辑,使得与Evanescence的世界巡回演唱会计划不得不搁置一年。在这期间,Seether将先前发行的单曲《Broken》以电子的方式重新演绎一遍,并邀请Evanescence的Amy Lee担任嘉宾主唱。 乐队与Amy Lee重制的修订版本得到观众的理想反映。同时该曲同新单曲《Sold Me》被选为2004年电影《The Punisher》(惩罚者)的配乐,这变成乐队的一大成功,尤其是在美国、英国和澳大利亚。在此期间,Amy Lee与主唱Shaun Morgan擦出了爱情的火花。Morgan说,这首歌是根据一个真实事件所写的,为此乐队要遵循的是唱片公司的意愿,而不是来自于乐队的。《Disclaimer》专辑的另一个版本里面所有的歌曲都进行重新录制或混音,在2004年正式发行,并被命名为《Disclaimer II》。这个版本还包括另外八个歌曲。2005-2006乐队的后续专辑《Karma and Effect》在2005年,原本被命名为《Catering to Cowards》因唱片公司的需求而被更名。该专辑在Billboard 200专辑排行榜中以第8名的成绩首次亮相,并在美国和加拿大活得了金唱片销量认证。该专辑还催生了三首单曲《Remedy》、《Truth》和《The Gift》。《Remedy》使得Seether在美国主流摇滚音乐排行榜中首次亮相就斩获榜首位置。Seether的CD/DVD合集的试音碟《One Cold Night》于2006年2月22日在费城葡萄街正式开录。Morgan此时从胃病的痛苦折磨中恢复过来,决定自己进行声学的设定,而不是取消巡演计划。为了使得专辑中不包含任何粗俗语言,根据唱片公司的意愿,《Needles》和《Burrito》从专辑中删除了。2006年6月16日,乐队的主音吉他手Patrick Callahan正式宣布离开乐队。这次离开并未给出任何理由,显然Patrick并不喜欢Seether的材料。主唱Shaun Morgan后来解释道:“嗯······感到些许宽慰,(原因)其实有很多,真是一言难尽,他总是我们乐队的反对者,写那些充满负能量的歌曲。其实我还没有到失恋的地步啦,但说‘他一向都是我的兄弟,四年以来都是如此。只不过当他从这种关系走出来的时候,我也背离了他’的原因很奇怪。摩根还在2006年8月加入了一个酗酒康复计划,因此这一年与Staind和Three Days Grace乐队的巡演被迫取消。2007-2009在参加酗酒康复计划之前,Shaun Morgan声称下一张专辑的录制工作将比以往更加努力,力求其变得多样化。这张名为《Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces》的专辑原本计划在8月份发布,但由于主唱Morgan深陷于弟弟Eugene Welgemoed的阴影中,不得不推迟至10月23日发布。这张专辑在Billboard 200专辑排行榜中首次亮相便位列第9,并在首周卖出57000张。专辑的封面名为《Candice the Ghost》,由David Ho设计并进行注释。首支单曲《Fake It》,在美国主流摇滚音乐排行榜和现代摇滚排行榜中曾占据榜首位置,该排位在两个排行榜中持续了9周星期。该曲也成为了WWE No Way Out 2008的主题曲。与Eugene Welgemoed共同创作的《Rise Above This》作为单曲发布,在现代摇滚排行榜及其对应的主流榜中分居1、2位。该专辑的最后一首单曲《Breakdown》的MV原定在2008年10月23日预定发售,后来推迟到11月12日正式开售。该专辑使得Seether首次在MTV南非音乐奖中获得“最佳英文摇滚歌曲奖”,同时还斩获“最佳另类艺人奖”。为该专辑进行宣传的历时一年巡演于2008年年初进行,2008年2月15日, Troy McLawhorn、of Dark New Day、Evanescence、Sevendust以及doubleDrive被正式聘为巡演期间的吉他手,此外与Seether同场演出包括Three Days Grace、Finger Eleven、Breaking Benjamin、3 Doors Down、Skillet、Red、Papa Roach、Flyleaf、Econoline Crush和Staind。事后,McLawhorn正式成为乐队成员。《No Shelter》在次年成为电视剧《海军罪案调查处》的官方配乐,并在该年2月10日发布,翻唱Wham!乐队的《Careless Whisper》以数字和移动方式提供下载。据说这首歌曾经被人所取笑,因为唱片公司要将该曲作为情人节歌曲录入专辑《Cheesy 80s pop ballad》,而要求乐队将这首歌改为硬摇滚/垃圾摇滚版本。《Careless Whisper》的MV在2009年6月15日正式首播,该曲也是专辑《Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces》的附曲。2009年3月和4月份,Seether参加了Nickelback的“Dark House”巡回演唱会,Shaun和Dale在2009年3月2日接受记者采访的时候证实,在Nickelback的巡演过后,将用一年的时间创作和录制《Finding Beauty in Negative Speaces》的后续专辑。然而,乐队利用演出所剩余的时间,在5月23日和24日期间到日本冲绳的施瓦布军营游玩,这声称是USO巡演的一部分。接着在5月26日出现在美国海军陆战队位于岩国市的MCAS基地中。Seether也作为演出成员,出现在夏季举办的一些音乐节里,包括齐佩瓦山谷音乐节和魁北克城音乐节,在这些节庆结束之前,还于10月4日出现在马萨诸萨州斯普林菲尔德举办的Big E音乐节。2010-2012乐队花费了几个月的时间与制作人Brendan O’Brien一起赶制新专辑,随后于2010年4月恢复巡演,并在6月的第一个星期回到录音室,完成专辑录制工作。乐队鼓手John Humphrey在8月份宣布新专辑录制完成,目前正在进行混音过程,他表示,该专辑是迄今为止最好的作品,歌曲“非常强烈,旋律又实惠便得凝重。”主唱Morgan正是该专辑的所有工作已于9月完成,预计将于2011年初发布,新歌《No Resolution》于2010年9月4日在伊利诺伊州迪克因的州博览会的Live Show中首次亮相,McLawhorn和Humphrey在接受电台访问时表示,新专辑将命名为《Holding Onto Strings Better Left to Fray》,5月发售。专辑的首支单曲《Country Song》于3月8日登陆美国,4月4日登陆英国。最终专辑于2011年5月17日上市,凭借该专辑的上市,Seether在Billboard 200 Charts的排名上升至第2位。该专辑同时在US Rock Albums、US Alternative Albums和US Hard Rock Album Charts占据榜首位置。除了乐队专辑《Karma and Effect》在2005年创下的单曲售出82000张的记录外,该专辑单周售出61000张的记录系该乐队的最好记录。该年,Billboard把Seether提名为No.1 Active和No.1 Heritgae Rock奖的候选人。《Holding Onto Strings Better Left to Fray》的混音EP在2012年2月7日正式发售,并命名为《Remix EP》。3月8日,Troy McLawhorn宣布离开Seether,回归到Evanescence。随后,乐队于5月10日和5月11日分别在俄亥俄州辛辛那提,以及印第安纳州南本德举办了两场演唱会,并在此期间发售限量版CD专辑。随后,乐队于与Avenged Sevenfold、Three Days Grace、Bullet For My Valentine以及Escape The Fate并肩出现在Uproar Festival音乐节的主舞台上,并参加 3 Doors Down于11月到次年3月举办的巡演。2013-至今截至2013年5月,该乐队一直在进行新专辑的录制进程。到目前为止,乐队已经录制了三首歌曲——《Safe To Say I've Had Enough》、《Weak》、《Words As Weapons》,Brendan O'Brien将继续担纲专辑制作人。《Safe To Say I've Had Enough》的15秒试听版视频目前已经在网上放出[2],如无意外,专辑将在今年发行。 音乐风格及影响 Seether的音乐风格受到了美国垃圾摇滚乐队Nirvana和Alice in Chains的影响,Allmusic杂志的Thomas Erlewine写道:“Seether的主唱、词曲作者Shaun Morgan是Kurt Cobain不折不扣的崇拜者。Nirvana的声音就像被Seether重新演绎了一个版本。此外,受影响的还有Deftones和Nine Inch Nails。
