The Rotted

Friends of mine.

THE ROTTED’s subject matter reflects the times we live in. They write about the things that matter to them: real life events, good and bad times the band have had together, drink and drug abuse, the state of society, battles with the authorities and the ongoing struggle for freedom. Listen to the debut album ‘Get Dead Or Die Trying’ or come to a live show: THE ROTTED provide an alternative to the bullshit of modern British life.

Formed in early 2008, The Rotted are proving themselves to be the next generation of UK metal. This line-up of seasoned veterans has shaken off the constraints and limitations of their old bands and genres to create the music that they want to hear, no holds barred.

This ‘no compromise’ attitude is just part of everyday life for THE ROTTED. Fuck society, fuck taxes, fuck ‘9-5’ lifestyles. It’s non-conformity, non serviam, no gods, no governments. THE ROTTED reject the normal and mundane, they do things THEIR way. Nothing contrived, no gimmicks, their music is honest and from the heart, a unique blend of metal, hardcore punk and cynical lyrical humor.

Though proud to be spawned in the extreme metal scene, the boys’ influences span a broad width of diversity. So THE ROTTED’s music comes from a completely different angle to most metal bands; It’s not the genre or style, it’s the attitude and delivery. They are all fans of classic rock, hardcore, punk, death, thrash and black metal and musical inspiration for the new album, ‘Get Dead Or Die Trying’ can be found in pretty much any decent guitar-based band of the last 40 years
