Lifeforce Records signs Withered

Atlanta, GA outfit Withered has officially signed with Lifeforce Records. Here's how Lifeforce manager Drew Juergens describes the band: "Imagine if you will, a band that finds the crippling medium between early 90's Death Metal, Blackened Swedish Death and Sludge/Crust-metal. Withered encompass everything I would want out of a brutally grinding/sludgy metal band of today!" Formed in mid-2003, the group features current members of Social Infestation in addition to ex-members of Leechmilk. Their new full-length, entitled "Memento Mori," was produced by Michael Green and will feature graphic design by Paul Romano (Mastodon). Look for the record to hit streets on September 6th.
