Gorerotted: 'A New Dawn for the Dead'
Gorerotted are proud to announce the release of their latest album, 'A New Dawn for the Dead' through Metal Blade Records on June 13th! This is their third full length and it demonstrates a subtle but welcome turning point for the band.
Bassist/vocalist Wilson elaborates, "this album is a new chapter for us. It still has the same 'Gorerotted'-humour and extreme grooves, but it's developed and grown into something evil-er and uglier than ever!"
Lyrics have followed this new path with subjects ranging from murder to voodoo and from psychotic violence to drink and drug abuse.
After one and a half years touring 'Only Tools and Corpses', the band have condensed the ferocity and the atmosphere of their live performance into a more complex record.
"For the first time we used our live sound engineer and a new studio for recording and its complemented our vision nicely".
'A New Dawn For The Dead' was recorded at Aexxys-Art studio (Schwandorf, Germany) engineered by Markus Roedl, mixed by Stephan Fimmers (Necrophagist) and mastered by Tim Turan (Status Quo, Marilyn Manson, Emperor, Discharge) at Turan Audio.
Artwork for the album is handled by the infamous UK artist Mick Kenny. The limited edition release will feature a bonus DVD featuring live tracks taken from Summer Breeze Open Air festival, the 'Only Tools And Corpses' video and some other cool extras!
Guitarist Tim (Fluffy) elaborates: "The live tracks from Summer Breeze are really cool, huge stage and great audience! There's no fancy edits so you get to see a 'real' Gorerotted show complete with drunken fuck-ups and Ben Goreskin and Wilson talking utter shit, I hope people enjoy watching it as much as we enjoyed playing it!".
