Seether Announces New Album


Nearly four years after their last album “Finding Beauty In Negative Spaces”, the post-grunge/alternative metal band Seether has plans to release a brand new studio album next month.


The eleven track album is called “Holding Onto Strings Better Left to Fray” and is set to drop on Tuesday, May 17th.

The South African band recorded “HOSBLTF” in Nashville, TN with producer Brendan O’Brien last year.  The unique album’s title is “actually a lyric from an important song on the album,” according to Seether drummer John Humphrey.


A single from the forthcoming album called “Country Song” was released this March 8th, so far as audio only (no vid yet L) and was performed live on a March 28th episode of the late night TBS talk show “Lopez Tonight”.

Seether front man Shaun Morgan explained that the track’s title “got its name from the swampy verse riff” featured in it and that the song’s background as him “dealing with growing up and having to make better life choices”. 

Here’s an audio only vid of Seether’s “Country Song” courtesy of YouTube.


I LOVE IT! J It’s so great to see that Seether still retains their trademark sound even in their new songs especially in a time where a band’s sound changes from one album to the next!  “Holding Onto Strings Better Left to Fray” sounds like a continuation of where 2007’s “Finding Beauty In Negative Spaces” left off and is sounding very promising!  I can’t wait for this album to drop; is it May 17th yet?
