Johannesburg, South Africa (2000 – present)
Early days, Fragile, Disclaimer
Saron Gas had their origins in Johannesburg, a city of South Africa, and the earliest days of the group saw their public appearances at parties, nightclubs, small-scale concerts and University venues, such as the University of Cape Town and the University of Stellenbosch, where they played for the lunch-time crowds in the Neelsie centre on the latter campus as late as the summer of 2001.
As Saron Gas, the band released its first album, Fragile on Musketeer Records, in 2000 in South Africa. Upon achieving success on the South African music charts, Wind-up Records took an interest in Saron Gas’ melodic-yet-heavy sound and signed them to the label. The band was asked to change their name due to Saron Gas being a homophone of sarin gas, a deadly nerve agent discovered (but never used in war) by Nazi Germany during World War II. The band changed its name to Seether in honor of Veruca Salt’s song titled, “Seether”.
Success and Disclaimer II
After Disclaimer was released, the band went on a non-stop touring route in hopes of boosting sales and name recognition. Upon completing the tour, the band had planned to go into the studio and record their second release. However, they were instead tapped to support Evanescence on a worldwide tour that postponed their recording plans by almost a year. On this tour, the band reworked the acoustic ballad “Broken” into an electric ballad and had Amy Lee of Evanescence share vocal duties with Morgan during live performances.

Except that "i won't discuss with you about this any further" is going further and egging me on. You're really digging yourself a hole now, idiot, because if everything I've scrobbled is "mickey mouse bullshit" then that would include music we have in common: Nirvana, Iron Maiden, Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters and Soundgarden. So you're accusing yourself of being a Hostess Twinkie motherfucker.

I'm confused. If I'm not "another wannabe tokio hotel guy," then I must be the "guy listening exclusively to mickey mouse bullshit." That can't be right. I've scrobbled over 6,800 artists; I don't listen to anything or anyone "exclusively." That makes no sense. And to answer your question: it's my right to express my opinion just as much as it's Seether's right to make the music that offended me so much that I felt the need to. This is an online community, an open forum. Fans don't have dominion over artist pages. That's what groups with closed discussions and shoutboxes are for.

"haha what have we got here? one guy listening exclusively to mickey mouse bullshit and another wannabe tokio hotel guy who doesn't know that the fuckin word GRUNGE mean. what do you nancy boys want? :D" I would like you to touch up on your English grammar, usage, and mechanics for starters. Secondly, I'd like an explanation as to your "tokio hotel" reference, as I do not listen to Tokio Hotel. I'd love some help in understanding how someone who enjoys a band that covered "Careless Whisper" can call anyone a "nancy boy." I'll stick to my guns on this one. Oh, and grabthyhand, please do yourself a favor and upload an avatar; your profile is more drab than the music on it. My favorite grunge bands are the Melvins and the Meat Puppets. What are yours? Drowning Pool and Papa Roach?

I wrote what I did because I heard "Careless Whisper" at work and was offended by how awful it was. It's my right as a listener. Nothing wrong with hating an artist in their shoutbox.
