ABSENT FROM THE BODY
This World’s Disease
DESCRIPTION:
This World’s Disease—the latest LP from Knoxville, TN-based thrash/groove metal band, Absent from the Body—is part new project coming to light, and part bittersweet tribute as one of their own has slipped into the “darkness”. Former lead singer Jason McMahan, who contributed all vocals and bass to the album, passed in March 2021, making this album a dedication to his legacy. With all members at one point in their lives struggling with darkness yet to eventually be overcome by the light, The World’s Disease is the soundtrack to McMahan’s ultimate passage into a place where darkness could never exist.
