Overview
The band originally formed with the intention of playing only one set, so they wrote a full set of songs. They adopted the name 'Theset' for this reason. The band members originally included Kyle Dark (guitar), Jory MacKay (guitar), Dean Rode (bass guitar), and Tristan Tarr (drums). Dark asked Martin MacPhail (singer) to sing for the band's set, and he did. When Dark left the country, he was quickly replaced by Elliot Carter (guitar), who had previously played in local band "Lythic Blue" with MacPhail.
Theset released their debut album, The Philosophy of Time Travel in 2005. It was produced by Adam Sutherland. They have toured western Canada since its release.
The band released their second album, Neveroddoreven, in September 2008. They played 2 dates at the Calgary and Vancouver Warped Tour on the Kia Kevin Says Stage.
In September 2010, the band released their 3rd record, Monsters. It was produced by Julius Butty and released by WAX Records.
In 2012, their song "Never Odd or Even", from the self-titled album, was used in the credits of the horror films Grave Encounters 2 (2012) and Curse of Chucky (2013).
