Making their explosive South East Asian debut, Finnish grinders ROTTEN SOUND make a powerful claim to the crown laid down by Sweden's grind pioneers – frontman Keijo Niinimaa even fronted the reunited NASUM for their 20th anniversary tour in 2012.

Formed 1993, ROTTEN SOUND have built up a reputation as one of the most intense live bands in grindcore as of their 2002 second album 'Murderworks' – which more than lives up to its name – and the wicked pace hasn't let up since, with 2011's 'Cursed' drawing crust punk into its septic mix of death metal and grindcore. If any band can shoulder the weighty responsibility of bringing the DIY values and knuckle-cracking spirit of OBSCENE EXTREME to new shores, it's Finland's finest!!!

THE MASTERS OF GRINDCORE ARE BACK!!! We all know them and we all love them!!! ROTTEN SOUND is the absolute synonym for the word grindcore!!! The band has been playing since 1993 and has been associated with Obscene Extreme since 2000, when they played their very first show outside their native Finland at Battlefield. And this great friendship continues to this day. Talking about ROTTEN SOUND's music would be like beating a dead horse, because this trio has its own unique sound and their music sounds like ROTTEN SOUND!!! Nothing more, nothing less!!!

For OEF 2026, the guys have prepared a special show based on the best hits from their albums "Murderworks" and "Exit," and this offer was simply irresistible!!! Grindcore at its best, that's ROTTEN SOUND!!! Welcome back, guys!!!
