    Artist History
    SETH came out of the hardcore band Garblecrat in 91. He began using the power of an acoustic guitar and raw vocals instead of the mundane chug of distorted electric guitars. $ETH! has opened for many now popular punk bands, participated in the North American UnFree Trade Tour and often plays at Earth First! events. Gradually additional members have joined to creat a full and unique sound.

    Press Reviews
    Acoustic RAGE! Not as cheezy as you think, so don't delude yourself with tired images of happy hippies dancing in your head...Think of pissed punx. Seth rises from the ashes of Dylan, but with teeth grit and fists clenched, tossing aside the hunble and polite nature of folk, to croon protest chants-Flipside_____M.A.Z. Somebody finally did it! A lot of folks throw around terms like "folk punk," but until Seth, I hadn't really heard anyone who could actually live up to that term(or more appropiately-"folk hardcore"). Bashing out a bunch of angry tracks on his acoustic guitar, shouting out with rage filled vocals. Totally pissed off in the best punk tradition-he's anti-government, anti-voting, anti-city, anti-religion, anti-leatherjacket, anti-Limbaugh, and completely pro-radical, eco-anarchist revolution. All the rage of punk in a driving acoustic package. All folks and punks take note!-Sounds Celebrating Resistance_____M.A.Z. The "Acoustic Rage" 7" has been one of my all time favorite things...for me Seth hits a chord and the message and power of the words, sung and spoken with the acoustic guitar are angrier and more impacting than alot of distorted blazing punk rock. Seth rocks in his own right, just for being Seth. If you've an open ear and mind, I highly recomend him!!! It's very powerful and idea feuled!!!-Slug and Lettuce_____The First Snack pretty amazing if you ask me. Lyrics are way more articulate than you'd expect to find in the typical punk song. All in all this is more than just a cd release, it's more of a statement, hopefully one that will provoke thought to those who choose to listen. -World Wide Punk_____TFS $ETH!'s politics, philosophy and raw, angry emotion strikes the match to burn down the house of neo-liberalism. His infamous acoustic/punk style creates a sound as strong a the issues the lyrics speak of. The radical veiwpoints expressed tap into the rage within your soul and gets listeners ready to fight.-Earth First! Journal
