COFFIN ROT (USA) - A Monument To The Dead (used LP copy) (2019) Released by Rotted Life/Blood Harvest Records on Traditional Black vinyl w/OBI Strip (1st Pressing: limited to 250 copies worldwide)
 
Portland, Oregon’s COFFIN ROT deliver a masterclass in relentless, gut-churning extremity with their debut full-length studio album, "A Monument To The Dead."  Following up their critically acclaimed 2017 Demo, the band unleashes an unholy fusion of classic Pacific Northwest Death Metal, Florida-style Thrash aggression, and filthy Finnish Doom-Death dynamics.
 
Across eight oppressive tracks, the record bombards the listener with neck-snapping groove shifts, dual-guitar interplay, and brutal vocal performances. Recorded and mixed by Joe Johnston at Rhythm Skelter Studios and mastered by Dan Lowndes at Resonance Sound Studio, "A Monument To The Dead" boasts a thick, analog-heavy mix that highlights every bone-crushing bassline and saw-blade guitar riff.
 
Encased in evocative, morbid cover art by Mark Cooper, this release stands as an essential centerpiece for any modern Death Metal collector.  -- Rotted Life – ROTTED12LP, Blood Harvest – YOTZ19-020LP
