WOE
Withdrawal

If the caustic vocals weren’t enough of an indicator, lyrics of isolation, tales of scavengers of the waste of humanity, and lamentations of regret might tip you off that there is absolutely nothing uplifting about this album.

While wallowing in despair, you might find the self-referential opening track, the first song released and the album’s strongest track, “Unending Call of Woe” to be a great listen, blending a strong tremolo picked melody with tempo and groove changes that are, dare I say, fun. The speed and higher vocals betray a definite thrashy punk influence that brings something more to the table than your standard black metal fare. The phased guitar lead into in “The Ones We Lost” and the ending riff of “Abject In Defeat” are some other great moments on this record.
