Wasteland: Vinyl 12" EP

The 5-track 'Wasteland - The Purgatory EP', persuasively demonstrates Seether's under-appreciated dynamism and creative versatility. Seething with dark muscularity, the urgent 'What Would You Do?' is a beautiful and cathartic baptism-by-fire get-down that never lets up. With Pixies' undertones and Beatle accents, 'Will It Ever End?' is a startling, pandemic appropriate head-trip that like the voice in your head, goes to places unforeseen and unforgiven. And 'Feast or Famine,' the unholy progeny of AC/DC and Sabbath-era Ozzy - is a KILLER, eat or be eaten elegy for the Trump years. The EP is bookended by two versions of 'Wasteland,' the original album track and a lovely new alternate version that features touches of piano and cello but still retains the original's tormented drive.
