The Skinny: Finnish grindcore veterans Rotten Sound are streaming the second track taken from their highly anticipated new full-length, Abuse to Suffer. The track, titled “Brainwashed” can be streamed below.

Regarding the new track, Rotten Sound comments: “This song became an instant favorite with all band members on hearing the demos and drumming at the studio. Sami had paid a lot of attention to the riffs, fills, hooks, and flow to keep the song interesting. The track starts at mid-pace, but goes full speed in the middle part, which also guided my singing. The vocal arrangements are a little bit unconventional as I wanted to avoid having a chorus, but I still aimed for some repetition in the fastest part to grind some more. This massive track shows more variety than the previous song ‘Lazy Asses’ and it has already proved to be extreme fun for us live. The lyrics are pretty graphic and revolve around the topic of brainwashing people to become soldiers for some ‘important’ cause. The words ‘brainwashed to murder’ at the end are underlining the fact that nobody is born to kill.”

Abuse to Suffer, the band’s first new record in five years, will be released by Season of Mist in North America on March 25. Rotten Sound have announced a headlining European tour. The tour, which begins on April 22 sees the band trek across 10 different countries before concluding on May 7. Support on the tour comes from Abigail Williams and Cult Leader.
