Seether

One Cold Night
Wind-up Records


Despite recent reports of lead singer Shaun Morgan's ongoing battle with substance abuse, Seether's DVD/CD instalment has made a significant impact on the band’s growing career in the industry.

Morgan and bandmates Dale Stewart and John Humphrey offer up a great deal on this album, showing that a decent record can still be produced without the effect of personal livelihoods.

Considered their most intimate record, One Cold Night is a live compilation of some of the band's greatest hits, including tracks from their debut album Disclaimer and Disclaimer II, and their current gold certified album, Karma and Effect. It combines a number of mellowed-out tracks with hardcore favourites like ‘Gasoline’ and ‘Truth’, for those who have always enjoyed the band's original sound.

Recorded in an acoustic setting in Philadelphia, the band found time to produce the album during their busy schedule. And it paid off; the disc has depth and proves they haven't missed a beat since their debut in 2002.

The DVD is packed with a bunch of goodies, including a special cover performance of Pearl Jam's ‘Immortality’, in-depth interviews with the band, and a behind-the-scenes package from the ‘Oaxaca’ video shoot.

The band's tour throughout the U.S. was cancelled due to Morgan's scheduled rehabilitation, but, on the strength of this album and DVD, fans can be sure they will make a strong comeback once they return to their craft.
