Rotten Sound Announce North American Tour

Holy fuck is this awesome! Rotten Sound is one of my favorite grind bands and they've just announced that they'll be on the North American Finnish Metal Tour 2 with Finntroll, Ensiferum and Barren Earth. This is a weird tour for Rotten Sound to be on considering the only ties they share with the other bands on the bill are that they’re all from Finland. As long as it gets them over here to the States I could give two shits, I will be watching whoever I have to and paying (almost) whatever the price is to see these guys! Here’s the official news:

"ROTTEN SOUND will take part in “The Finnish Metal Tour 2” featuring fellow Finns FINNTROLL, ENSIFERUM, and BARREN EARTH. This four-week tour will kick-off on January 31st in Orlando , FL and conclude in early March in Raleigh, NC . A listing of confirmed tour dates and cites can be found below.

ROTTEN SOUND has most recently seen the release of their Napalm EP. The six-song EP features three brand new ROTTEN SOUND tracks and three NAPALM DEATH covers as well as a DVD featuring a live set from the Obscene Extreme Festival. Napalm is currently streaming in its entirety at RottenSoundNapalm.info.

Rotten Sound has begun work on the follow-up album to 2008’s "Cycles," tentatively titled "Cursed." The brand new full-length will be mixed by Nico Elgstrand (Entombed) and is expected to see an early 2011 release date. Additional album details will be announced shortly."
