DESCEND: to release second album "Wither" in January!
November 21, 2013
On January 24th 2014, Descend's second full length album Wither will be
released through Inverse Records. Wither being their darkest record to
date, Descend expands on what they know and do best - delivering a
perfect blend of progressive death metal. This is the band's defining
record.
Descend is a progressive death metal band from Stockholm, Sweden. The
band was formed in 2003 and the current line-up dates back to 2008.
After three self released demos, the debut album Through the Eyes of the
Burdened was released through Supernova Records in May 2011. The album
was well received and supported through numerous live performances
including festivals in Germany, Canada as well as the renowned Metaltown
festival in Gothenburg in the summer of 2012. The band has been self
managed from the start, and dedicated work has attracted fans from many
different countries.
Combining melodic harmonies, acoustic passages and death metal riffs,
the band manages to effortlessly swing back and forth from tranquil,
atmospheric playing to a barage of apocalyptic death metal.
From the opening drum fill in Confined By Evil all the way up to the
final ringing notes in Sundown, Wither takes the listener through a
dark, thought provoking, malevolent journey, certain to leave the
listener asking for more.
Wither is one the must have records of 2014 and will land Descend their
rightful place in the top section of bands in the progressive death
metal genre.
