Grief Relic is my first time crossing paths with Withered, the joining of the mighty Ethan McCarthy (Primitive Man, Vermin Womb, ex-CTTTOAFF) to the band being a treat that immediately raised interest. This black/death metal infantry is armed to the teeth with all the fixins: blitzkrieg guitars, thundering drum and bass, monstrous vocals from Ethan and Mike Thompson, and a pleasantly variable tempo ranging from frantic bangers one moment to slow, painful crushers the next. If you've been running low on the brutality pills lately, Withered are happy to compensate. Get rekt. Apothecary's picks | More picks ›› |

Personally, I found this to be pretty dull. It's technical, but without soul. That and I feel like I've heard it before. I expect more from ELM.

Written by flightoficarus on 03.06.2016 at 04:47 Consider the fact though that the band had already had a history long before his joining though, so he may not exactly be exerting the most influence over the songwriting here. Withered isn't really "Ethan's band" in the same sense that Primitive Man, Vermin Womb, CTTTOAFF, etc. are

It's a good record but sounds more brutal death metallish than black death to me and slight doom influences as well. Its only decent and certainly not on Primitive Man levels of goodness.
