New York, NY (Top40 Charts) SEETHER, (Shaun
Morgan - vocals/guitar, Dale Stewart - bass/vocals, and John
Humphrey - drums) one of hard rock's most successful and enduring groups returned with their seventh full-length studio album, entitled
Poison the Parish (Canine Riot / Fantasy) on May 12th, 2017, which debuted #1 on Billboard's Hard Rock albums chart, #14 on Billboard's Top 200 albums chart, and #8 on Billboard's Current albums chart selling more than 31,000 copies in its first week.
For the third consecutive week, lead single "
Let You Down" is #1 at rock radio across the U.S., the 13th chart topper of the band's illustrious career.
Previously the band shared "Stoke the Fire," via Revolver, as well as "Nothing Left," with an exclusive Q+A at Billboard and "Count Me Out," at Loudwire.
Poison the Parish, recorded at Blackbird Studio in Nashville, Tennessee, marks the first album produced entirely by front man Shaun Morgan. Perhaps the heaviest and most expressive collection they've ever released, the album is earning their best notices in years.
"In a time when it's easy to tune out all the monotonous rock, Seether's
Poison the Parish proves the South African outfit still grooves, crushes and rocks harder than all." — Revolver
"A return to the darker and heavier style of music that
Seether built their name upon." — Alternative Press
"Heavier and more powerful than anything released in recent memory by the band,
Poison the Parish brings the band back to their glory days." — New Noise
"Poison the Parish is the kind of album that deserves to shoot to the forefront of pop culture.
Seether are three real dudes, rocking real instruments, and writing real songs. This is just the poison we need out there. Drink it down." — All Axess
"…a sonic journey unlike their contemporaries or their former selves." — Cryptic Rock
Morgan's recent in-depth and revealing profile at Psychology Today is a must read.
