Native Noise Collections Vol.1 – The Seether Sessions album out 16 Nov

Native Noise Collections Vol.1 – The Seether Sessions is a look back on the career to date of South Africas most successful rock band – Seether.

Disk one of the release features Shaun, Dale and the band talking about the genesis of the band all the way through to the present day including the trials and tribulations of being in a successful rock band.

This South Africa only release will capitalize on the success of Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces and introduce a new legion of fans to the history of the band and their most popular songs to date.

A few years have passed since Native Noise ended its run on UCT Radio, since then I’ve been searching for the right way to relaunch the brand and what it stands for. Peter Lacey at Musketeer Records was always a huge supporter of the show and his new concept for the Native Noise Collections is the perfect way to bring it back. The ethos of Native Noise was ‘thinking globally by supporting locally’, and no rock band represents the global domination of South African music better than Seether. I remember playing the hell out of ‘Fragile’ as a campus radio DJ and spilling my beer in the mosh pit at early Saron Gas shows, so it is a huge honour to be involved with this release – as an avid supporter of SA music and a Seether fan. It has been inspiring to watch Seether’s fanbase grow over the years, a reminder that the South African public has the power to create local rock stars. The success of ‘Finding Beauty in Negative Spaces’ thrust Seether into a new league, locally and abroad, so this collection is a treasure trove of rarities as the band continues to grow and make us proud.
