More about this title

About the Artist: Seether

Seether formed in Pretoria, South Africa, in 1999 and quickly became one of the defining voices of post-grunge alternative metal. The band's raw, heavily distorted guitar work and emotionally charged songwriting earned them international recognition, with multiple platinum certifications and consistent presence on rock radio throughout the 2000s and beyond. Their influence on modern metal and hard rock education lies in their accessible yet technically solid approach to riff writing and song structure.

Why we love this

Seether's riffs are direct, memorable, and muscular without requiring virtuosic technique, making them ideal for intermediate players who want to tackle contemporary metal with real commercial credibility. The band's catalog provides excellent case studies in how distortion, tuning, and rhythm create impact, and "Hang On" specifically offers students a chance to decode songwriting that connects to their own musical world.

What to expect

Heavy and urgent without pretense. "Hang On" hits with the weight of overdriven guitars and tight rhythm work, paired with the kind of emotional intensity that made post-grunge resonate with so many players. It feels substantial in your hands, not flashy.

Who it's for

Intermediate guitar players ready to move into contemporary rock and metal styles, and ensemble directors building electric guitar programs that reflect students' listening lives. This tab also works for metal ensemble arrangements or rock band contexts where accessibility and engagement matter as much as technical depth.

How to get the most out of it

  • Lock into the pocket by tracking a click or metronome; Seether's groove-oriented approach demands rhythmic precision more than flash
  • Dial in your tone before rehearsing the tab; understand whether you're using standard or alternate tuning and which effects are essential to the song's character
  • Listen to the original recording multiple times to absorb dynamics and ghost notes that tab alone cannot capture

How to use it

Slot this into a rock band unit or a contemporary metal study where students analyze how modern artists structure riffs and dynamics. It also works as a standalone recital piece for a student seeking to perform music from their generation with integrity.

Skills your students will build
