Rats Of Gomorrah Streaming New Album
Today, on January 31, 2025, German duo Rats Of Gomorrah unleashed their debut full-length "Infectious Vermin" to spread the death metal plague and wreak havoc around the globe. In celebration of the release, the band has made the entire album available to stream on YouTube, which you can find below.
"This album is the result of our frustration with the metal scene and its reluctance to change," frontman Daniel Stelling explains. "At the same time, we were massively inspired by recent releases from Baest, Frozen Soul, and Conjurer to name but a few. We have also worked in elements that we love from our own catalog, such as crust-infused riffs like the one in 'Lack of Black' and catchy choruses as in 'Rats of Gomorrah'. We deliberately tried not to fulfill too many expectations that everybody has about a death metal record. To achieve this, we took some detours for example into heavy and speed metal territory, and also kept vocal pitching varied. As with previous releases, our lyrical themes address social, political, and environmental issues, which we wrapped up in Lovecraft'ian horror tales. And for the first time, some of the lyrics of 'Infectious Vermin' are rather intimate and personal. Listeners will still need to draw their own conclusions when listening to our songs. Oh, and in case you did not already notice, we were quite generous with the underlying 'rat theme'." More...
