ROTTEN: 'Quality Killings' Release Delayed

September 12, 2010

Dutch death metallers ROTTEN — who feature in their ranks members of RADICAL NERVE DISTORTION, REBORN and HACKSAW — have postponed the release of their debut album, "Quality Killings". The CD was originally due in the summer of 2010, but will now be made available in the winter.

According to ROTTEN, the reason for the delay is that the band has entered the studio again. ROTTEN decided to record four new songs and add them to the forthcoming album. "We weren't happy with the result of some older songs, so we've cancelled them," stated bassist Tommy. Vocalist Robbert added, "The new songs represent the new ROTTEN in a better way and we wanted them on 'Quality Killings'."

"Quality Killings" will feature 11 or 12 songs. The final track listing will be revealed soon.

ROTTEN recently recorded a cover version of GAMMA RAY's "Leaving Hell" for an upcoming tribute album to HELLOWEEN and GAMMA RAY. The CD, entitled "HelloRay - A Tribute To Helloween & Gamma Ray", will be made available via Epicus Records.

ROTTEN can be heard on the "One Foot in Fire (Tribute to Cirith Ungol)" and "The Riddle Masters (Tribute to Manilla Road)" compilations, both on Solemnity Records, as well on "Blown to Pieces 4" (FearSome Records).
