Do you want to talk about something scary, because I do? I was out cruising around yesterday taking care of business and listening to the radio and I heard the Wham tune “Careless Whisper” come on the radio. That by itself was not scary but the sound and vocals were definitely not George Michael it was Shaun Morgan and Seether, which was scary.
Seether has recorded covers from several different bands such as Neil Young’s “Needle and the Damage Done”. As you would expect in the Seether fashion they have rocked out those covers, but seriously Wham? I will tell ya one thing though they certainly gave “Careless Whisper” the hard edged Seether sound that they are famous for, and it sounded good too.
Seether got its start as a post-grunge band from Johannesburg, South Africa in 1999. They were originally known as Saron Gas and were signed to Musketeer records in South Africa. In 2002 they changed their name to Seether, which coincided with the release of their 2nd album as well as their major labor debut.
The bands current album Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces with their label Wind-Up is selling like crazy and their tour is selling out everywhere they play. Negative Spaces is the brainchild of Shaun Morgan, drummer john Humphrey, and bassist Dale Stewart. While the record is still as Seether hard as ever the band certainly paid attention to writing more melodic tunes.
Some of the songs on the new record you might want to check out are “Fallen, “No Jesus Christ”, and “Rise Above This”. Negative Spaces is definitely the culmination of all of Seether’s hard work and shows this awesome bands growth and maturity musically. I highly recommend that all of you check out this latest compilation of fantastic Seether tunes.
That’s it for today my friends, but I will be back with more great stuff on Simple Man Music soon. Have a great day and enjoy the videos CIAO4NOW!!!!!
