| SETH BIOGRAPHY
SETH is without doubt today a leading act in the extreme metal scene of France.
After a debut mcd, SETH first album 'Les Blessures de l'Ame" (released in 1998 on Season of Mist) received very promising reviews from the press and started creating a solid fanbase worldwide, destined to expand step by step.
The band signed a contract with Osmose Productions and recorded the second album "The Excellence"(2000). Uphold by prestigious collaborations such as Fenriz (Dark Throne) and the famous electronic band Total Eclipse, SETH combined and joined very different influences into extreme metal music with no boundaries, as long as strength and brutality is at stake. Shortly after the band got offers to appear on French TV music shows and shot a video clip for the French MTV channel "MCM".
SETH was also invited to take part of the legendary "Tribute to Mayhem" compilation on Avantgarde Music along with bands such as: Immortal Behemoth, Dark Funeral...
In 2002, the band recorded their 3rd album `Divine X' at Excess Studio in Rotterdam (Sinister, Elegy, After Forever, Epica) again on Osmose Productions.
That release showed their undisputed ability to mix both dark atmospheres and brutality. The album was again highly praised by the press, receiving top rank reviews in many magazines like Mindview and Grindzone.
In December 2003 the band entered again Excess Studio with a revised line up, featuring new inputs Cyriex and Black Messiah, to record their most mature, personal and mesmerizing album ever: "Era Decay".
