Biography

Here`s some details about Withering…
The Withering story began at Autumn 1999. Raimo (bass) and Henkka (drums) had an idea about a band, and they started looking for a guitarist to complete the line-up. A few candidates came up, and finally they found what they had been looking for.

Mika was a guitarist with several years of musical experience and fit tendency. When these three guys played together for first time, they all knew that this would be the new line-up for Withering.

Withering started rehearsing some cover songs from bands like Amorphis, Paradise Lost and Sentenced. When the band found its sound and balance between instruments and the time was right, Mika came up with own songs.

Some of the songs had been composed by him before he joined the band, but most of them were composed exclusively for Withering. The arrangements of the songs were made by the band together.

Withering recorded their first demo-cd “The signs of betrayal” on January 2001. After releasing of “the signs of betrayal” Mikko Mäkinen joined the band. Mika brought some great shit in a form of new songs to trains. They started immediately to work with those new songs, and after a year they thought that it was a time to go to the studio again.

They recorded their second demo in january of 2002 at Tico-tico Studios, and it was named: “Justification for unavoidable”.

    Couldn't agree more. I have one question then - anyone knows full lyrics for "Not yt the last"? Can;t figure out a few words. The official site doesn't post them, and the ones posted still have mistakes ;P

    Achromaticus: What the fuck do u want from me? I said I like Withering - Gosel of Madness kicks ass, but Festum Melancholia is definately worse - both musically and vocally. This growl sounds more forced. And what a cool person u must be that u respond with "go fuck your momma" to a different opinion. Sad. I almost feel sorryfor u. Must have a lot of friends if u have such an approach to people.

    Yeah, but i am really dissapointed with what has happened to the band - vocals replaced by worse vocals, and the music style worse overall... This EP (especially the last sleep), reminds me very much of a very weak album by Ensiferum called Dragnheads... Can't lose the impression that i have heard it all before, and even if not - it's imo far worse than the album which is absolutely great.
