Atlanta's Withered already left a blistering impression with their Lifeforce release "Memento Mori" and they're back now with "Folie Circulaire", their debut for Prosthetic, the home for all things heavy on this planet.
With their sludgy take on death metal, they've got quite something special on their hands. The first half blends these two together seamlessly without letting either one take control of the reins. On the second half however, it's death metal city all the way. And as much as I like that doomy sound, it sounds frigging awesome especially when you listen to the Necrophobic cover "Into Armageddon" and the one-two punch of "Purification Of Ignorance" and "Drawn Black Drapes".
One thing's for sure though if you listen to Mastodon, Light Pupil Dilate and Withered... there's one talented bunch of metalheads living in Atlanta!
Score: 8 out of 10
