WITHERING SOUL Signs With MORTAL MUSIC

January 24, 2011

Chicago's extreme metal artists WITHERING SOUL have inked a deal with Mortal Music. The band's new album, "No Closure", will be released on March 8 via MVD Entertainment Group distribution. The CD was recorded and mixed by Chris Wisco (NOVEMBERS DOOM, MICHAEL ANGELO BATIO, LAZURUS A.D.) at Belle City Sound in Racine, Wisconsin and mastered at The Cutting Room in Sweden.

According to a press release, WITHERING SOUL's music can be described as "a combination of symphonic black metal and melodic death metal... with some gothic overtones thrown in as well. Featuring carefully crafted songs full of interesting changes and climactic phrasings, the band delivers a mature sound that is not normally achieved on a first release. Also, as an underlying blue print, the band draws on influences from some of the finest in Scandinavian black metal before venturing off and establishing their own style. Throughout the album, you will find sinister yet majestic clean vocal melodies, catchy rhythms, and a haunting vibe that would make for an amazing soundtrack to a classic horror novel. As a special treat, guest backing vocals have been provided by Melissa Ferlaak (ECHOTERRA, VISIONS OF ATLANTIS, AESMA DAEVA) on the songs 'Lifeless They Lie' and 'Unquiet'."

"No Closure" track listing:

01. Night of the Revenant
02. Phantasmal Chaos Divinity
03. The Sequitor
04. Tides of the Accursed
05. Possession of Deception - Part II
06. Sadistic Redress
07. Manifest Transparency
08. Lifeless they Lie
09. Unquiet
10. Requiem of Sorrow

The "Tides Of The Accursed" song is available for streaming on the WITHERING SOULMySpace page.

WITHERING SOUL spent the past couple of years building up momentum while playing countless shows and sharing the stage with the likes of ENSLAVED, DARK FUNERAL, FINNTROLL, SATYRICON, ABSU and HANZEL UND GRETYL.

WITHERING SOUL was featured on "ReUnation - A Tribute To Running Wild" with its cover of "Firebreather". The album was released worldwide by Germany's Remedy Records.
