{{main|Mortal Treason}}
In 2001 Seth formed the band Mortal Treason alongside Bruce Crisman, Josh Jarrett, Richie Reale and Chase Nikkins.{{cite web|url=http://m.vitalbmx.com/features/Seth-Kimbrough-Music-is-My-Passion-Too,4313|title=Seth Kimbrough: Music is my Passion Too|publisher=VitalBMX|accessdate=October 21, 2015}} Mortal Treason released their debut album "A Call to the Martyrs" in 2004. Mortal Treason went on several tours including the Rise of The Robots tour alongside The Showdown and Staple.[http://www.godcore.com/music/bands/index.php?BAND=mortaltreason Mortal Treason's last tour] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061109172526/http://www.godcore.com/music/bands/index.php?BAND=mortaltreason |date=2006-11-09 }}
The band encountered many problems which led to some of the members leaving. After a quick search for members Adam Wright, TJ Alford, Steve Robinson and Seth's then wife, Elizabeth Kimbrough, joined the band. The band soon released their new album "Sunrise Over a Sea of Blood" in 2005, which contained elements of Death metal. The band has of late split up, members of the band said that they believed "God has something else planned for us", but there were also rumors of label problems. As of 2014, Mortal Treason is back together with new tour dates coming soon.
