''Disclaimer'' is the major label debut by Alternative metal band Seether, released in 2002. It features three successful singles which would remain some of the band's most well-known songs. It is their first release under their current name after changing it from ''Saron Gas'' in 2002 to avoid confusion with a deadly nerve agent known as sarin gas. ==Background and release== A great deal of pre-production took place in South Africa with supervision from a Wind-Up representative. It continued in New York before the album recording sessions began in Los Angeles. Veteran session drummer Josh Freese filled the role in studio before an audition took place at Leads Rehearsal Studio. Among sixteen others, Nick Oshiro auditioned and joined the band in 2001. Seether would also enlist guitarist Patrick Callahan in fall that year after performing alongside his then current band in Philadelphia.〔 ''Disclaimer'' was released with ten different cover variations. These feature images from the "Fine Again" music video with people holding signs depicting a negative outlook or a poor situation in life. The concept to implement it through the album cover was headed by the video's director, Paul Feeder. According to bassist Dale Stewart: :"() came up with the idea of the people bearing their souls and holding up the signs and we thought it was a good concept. It's kind of like a thread that runs through the whole album, the fragility, or whatever you want to call it, you know in people. People are always screwed up about something, even if they act like they're not."〔(Interview with Dale Stewart, Nick Oshiro, and Pat from Seether ) (November 2002).

According to a reflective Shaun Morgan in 2005: :"...With ''Disclaimer'', we were still pretty green and all the say-so was made for us. We really didn’t have much and most of those decisions, I felt, were bad ones. Last time around we had a manager from South Africa. She wasn’t very good at what she was doing and she was letting (record label ) walk all over us."〔Perlman, Jason (Interview with Shaun Morgan ) Ferrante's Power Equipment (2005). Retrieved on 1-29-11.〕 Seven of the tracks that appeared in their previous album ''Fragile'' appeared remastered on ''Disclaimer''. The seven tracks remastered for ''Disclaimer'' were: "69 Tea," "Pride," "Fine Again," "Driven Under," "Your Bore," "Pig," and "Gasoline." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Disclaimer (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
