The Rotted - Set To Release New Material This Summer

The Rotted are set to enter the studio in May with producer James Dunkley to record Anarchogram, a self-released EP comprising of 2 new tracks and 4 bonus tracks.

Says guitarist Tim Carley: "These songs are the first we have written with the new line-up and we are really buzzing about letting people hear them! We've wanted to do something like this for ages, put out a self-financed DIY release on our own label, like the way we used to more than 10 years ago, before MySpace and Blog sites and all that crap. We've got the opportunity to do it this summer and it's a way for us to give something back to the fans at a low cost".

As bonus tracks, each band member will be picking a song by a band they want to personally pay tribute to, for inspiring them to play extreme music in the first place. Says vocalist Ben McCrow: "These are just a bit of fun really, and a chance to pay homage to the Metal Messiahs we worshipped during our teenage years. Most musicians have a list of cover songs they'd love to play, and I'm sure you won't be disappointed with our choices!"

After the release of the EP this summer The Rotted will continue working on album two. They plan to enter Parlour Studio in January 2011 with Russ Russell at the production helm. Anarchogram is set to be released in Summer 2010 and available via the bands webstore.

The Rotted - Bassist Quits The Band

The Rotted have announced the following statement:

"The Rotted are to part company with bassist Wilson. New priorities in his personal life have made it apparent that he'll no longer be able to commit 100% to the upcoming plans and fast-moving future of the band, therefore he's taken the decision to step down as bass guitarist.

Says Wilson, 'It is with some sadness that I am announcing my departure from The Rotted. I've been with these guys through thick and thin for over 6 years, and had some of the best times of my life! When we reformed as The Rotted, the process was simple, that everyone would be firing on all cylinders in the same direction - I always said if my other commitments in life would hinder this, then I would step down for the greater good, and it is clear that this time has come! My last show with the guys will be at the Wacken festival - we play on the Wet stage on the Friday afternoon, so come down and raise a horn with me! I'm incredibly satisfied of what I have achieved with the guys, and the release of Get Dead Or Die Trying and the Wacken fest is finishing on a real high, what more could anyone ask for?

The Rotted will continue full steam ahead with 'business as usual' and they will announce a new bass player after Wacken Festival."

Gorerotted - Change Band Name To The Rotted

The UK's Gorerotted have decided to take the big step of changing their name to THE ROTTED! Having worked so hard on their new album "Get Dead Or Die Trying", the lads felt that due to the huge progression they've made from previous releases musically and lyrically and after frequent line-up changes that this was the only right thing to do.

Says frontman Ben McCrow: "The motives behind what we were doing with Gorerotted have changed over the years, and as a mark of respect for what we achieved, for previous band members and for fans, we didn't feel it was right to continue under our previous monicker. This album is gonna blow people away, I couldn't even classify it for you if I tried, all I can say is its heavy as fuck, catchy as hell and a piece of work we're all incredibly proud of. People have been affectionally referring to us as The Rotted for some time now, so it seemed like a decent change to us."
