Rotten Tomb released their third LP, Vestiges Of Tortured Souls, on 6 June via Nuclear Winter Records. This new release is available on CD, cassette, vinyl and, of course, digitally.
There's a major improvement in Rotten Tomb's music compared to their previous works. Dense death metal, great guitar solos, furious drumming and a raging vocal performance make this album damn aggressive and a great piece of old-school death metal, with some doomy vibes at certain moments and even a blackened aura.
The mastering and production are near perfection, with everything sitting exactly where it should be.
I wouldn't hesitate to say that Vestiges Of Tortured Souls is a strong contender for AOTY in the Death Metal category. If it doesn't take the top spot, I'm sure it will appear on many critics' year-end lists.
Rotten Tomb are a Chilean band formed around 2016 after the disbanding of Hades, where C. and Deathbringer played guitar. They are also the guitarists of the Death/Thrash band Atomicide.
