Seether have lined up legendary producer Brendan O' Brien to record their forthcoming album, due later this year.

O'Brien, who is best known for his work with Pearl Jam and recently produced the band's 'Backspacer' album, has produced albums for the likes of AC/DC ('Black Ice'), Rage Against The Machine ('Evil Empire', 'The Battle of Los Angeles'), The Offspring ('Conspiracy Of One', 'Splinter'), Incubus, Audioslave and Velvet Revolver. He has also been behind Bruce Springsteen's four critically acclaimed albums of the past decade: 'The Rising', 'Devils And Dust', 'Magic', and 'Working On A Dream'.

Presently, 14 of his albums produced have reached #1 in America on the Billboard Hot 200 Charts.

O'Brien's studio career was launched by the success of the first Black Crowes album, 'Shake Your Money Maker' which he engineered and played guitar and bass on.

In the early '90s he began working at Geffen Records under Rick Rubin, producing bands like Stone Temple Pilots and Pearl Jam.

In the mid '90s the double Grammy winner became vice president of Epic Records and Epic imprint 57 Records.

He also played a Hammond organ for Bob Dylan's appearance on MTV Unplugged. In 1995 he joined Pearl Jam and Neil Young on keyboard for the Mirrorball tour across Europe.

Seether's as-yet-untitled album is the successor to 2007's 'Finding Beauty In Negative Spaces' which featured the singles 'Fake It' and 'Rise Above This'.
