Prosthetic Records signs Withered
Prosthetic Records is proud to announce Atlanta's WITHERED as the latest
addition to the label's ranks. The band's latest effort, 'Folie Circulaire,'
is scheduled for a late-spring release and will be produced by Phillip Cope
(Kylesa, Baroness, Black Tusk) through Prosthetic. "We're very excited to
start this new chapter for Withered by joining the Prosthetic Records
family," guitarist/vocalist Mike Thompson says. "We've put a lot of time and
consideration into deciding which label we wanted to work with for our next
album and Prosthetic have really proven their commitment to Withered's music
and metal in general. It can be difficult to find a label that understands
your band AND has the resources to help cultivate your music without
compromising it. This is a natural step for Withered and we are quite eager
to contaminate and disgrace everything Prosthetic Records has to offer."
The band's previous release, 2005's 'Memento Mori,' garnered critical
acclaim and took WITHERED on the road with the likes of Mastodon, High On
Fire, Dismember, Grave, Vital Remains, 1349, as well as new labelmates
Skeletonwitch in the summer of 2007. A rough demo version of a song from
'Folie Circulaire' is currently available on the band's MySpace page

with several tracks from 'Memento Mori.'
