The rotting


Deep within the grave
Where the cadaver lies decayed - there lurks the rotting
Within every fetid corpse
This process festers on its course - to speed the rotting

Its ubiquity cannot be denied - a gruesome trade, sempiternally plied

From the waste in which we wallow
To the flesh we gluttonously swallow - we consume the rotting
In rubbish bins of medical waste
Awaits the horrendous, wretched taste - of the rotting

That first whiff sure to nauseate - and its rancid fruit we regurgitate

The rotting's coming
The end it brings
The rotting is the destiny of all that's breathing
The rotting's strumming
On your heartstrings
The rotting's coming - 'til you're the corpse that we're bereaving

In the slither of the grubs
The maggots writhing in their chum - there feed the rotting
In suppurating stools
That dribble ichor into pools - there reeks the rotting

The grue that binds us together - is everyone devouring one another

The rotting's coming
The end it brings
The rotting is the destiny of all that's breathing
The rotting's strumming
On your heartstrings
The rotting's coming - 'til you're the corpse that we're bereaving

The rotting

[Lead - Matt]
[Lead - Bud]

The humble and the great
All consumed by the same fate - become the rotting
In its blackening embrace
All is eventually erased - by the rotting

The putrid waste upon which we've built our lives - as we decay, maggots and weevils thrive

The rotting's coming
It was here all along
The rotting is an acrid, stinking, putrid savor
The rotting's strumming
Its discordant song
The rotting's thrumming
A defective dirge to scourge your neighbors

The rotting

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 

The lyrics THE ROTTING of EXHUMED is also present in the album Necrocracy (2013)

Biografia

Exhumed è una band di death metal americana proveniente da San Jose, California. Fondata nel 1990 dal quindicenne Matt Harvey, l'unico membro rimasto dall'epoca della formazione originale, la band ha trascorso gran parte del decennio successivo a registrare demo, split CD ed EP. Il loro album d'esordio, "Gore Metal", uscito nel 1998, è stato un punto di svolta per il genere, definendo una fusione tra death metal old-school e grindcore che era già emersa durante le registrazioni del loro ultimo demo ("Horrific Expulsion of Gore") e del primo split CD ("In the Name of Gore"). L'album ha ricevuto critiche contrastanti ma ha consolidato la posizione di Exhumed nel panorama underground metal. Nel corso degli anni, la band ha continuato a registrare album e tour, mantenendo un sound brutale e aggressivo che ha influenzato numerose altre band del genere. Tra i loro album più noti figurano "All Guts No Glory" (2002) e "Death Revenge" (2014).
