Digital Seether was a top story for this week. Here it is again: (Wind-up Records) Seether have recorded an iTunes Originals program exclusively for the digital music retailer. The quartet entered Groovemaster Studios in Chicago on May 19, 2008 to perform new arrangements of select repertoire, and conduct an extensive interview for inclusion in the release. The half-dozen tunes chosen span the length of Seether's career from their beginnings in South Africa, through their current release FINDING BEAUTY IN NEGATIVE SPACES. Additionally, a cover selected by the quartet, alongside six previously released studio album cuts rounds out the complete track listing (below). This release is available exclusively on iTunes BEGINNING TODAY August 5, 2008.
Alongside the musical performances, the program features an extensive interview with band members Shaun Morgan (Vocals / Guitar), Dale Stewart (Bass), John Humphrey (Drums) and Troy McLawhorn (Guitar). The interview covers expansive territory, taking fans from the origins of the band in May 1999 through the process of writing and recording, and a deep exploration into the band's repertoire and personal obstacles they have individually and collectively overcome. - more on this story
