Death metal force ROTPIT has unveiled a crushing new visualizer for their track “Golem of Rot.”
Known for their raw, old-school sound, the band pairs their bone-crushing riffs with eerie, atmospheric visuals that bring the song’s macabre themes to life.
“Golem of Rot” is an exclusive track that was written and recorded for the ROTPIT split release with Flordia’s DRUID LORD. The split is entitled Doomed to Rot. A vinyl version will be released in February 2025 by Polish label Behind the Mountain Records. A tape version will follow up later on Gurgling Gore Records.
ROTPIT commented on the split: “DOOMED to ROT has been the motto for this split EP. With ROTPIT our idea was to create a heavy monolith type of song that enters the feeling, vibe and music territory of DRUID LORD. Our track ‘Golem Of Rot’ is of course inspired lyrically by the mystic legend of the Golem of Prague. Well, in our case the golem is made of rot instead of clay and of course it’s more an underworld freak creature doing some mess around. Our song is super heavy and it really pays off that Erik Barthold comes from the Doom Metal scene. Delivering the slow and moody stuff is sometimes more difficult for extreme Metal drummers than you might expect.
“DRUID LORD have with ‘Fatal Fog‘ a quite fast track, but it also encloses the creep and horror vibes, which speaks for their style. Both bands and tracks fit like a fist in the face!
“Both songs are exclusive and not released before.
“The artwork was done by Polish artist Rafal Kruszyk (INTERMENT, COFFINS, ENTRAILS etc.) and shows off a lot of dedication and a unique style in drawing. Handmade art for a release in the old school underground way. The vinyl version (lim. 300 / black wax) is out through Behind The Mountain Records and a tape version with a different layout setting will be out in the US by Gurgling Gore Records. Both songs will be out on digital format, too.
