First of all, I'd just like to say that this is my favorite L.A hardcore band there is out there. I know, I know, there's plenty better but you can not match the energy they have live. They make you go completely fucking mental. "Positive Views" was the first song I ever heard from them, back in 08, and my first thought was "Holy shit, this is fucking brilliant!" The build up from the drums, Mike's voice practically in your face telling you that your views fucking suck. And almost every track is like this. What I mean by that is not that everything is the same but that it has consistency. It's not your typical "I'm angry at the world" hardcore, it's the "I'm fucking calling you out and you're too ashamed to admit" type of music everyone likes to hear. It's just so perfect. After I bought the complete full length, I was again, very pleased. Mostly because they covered "L.A Girl" by the Adolescents and "I Love Living In The City" by FEAR. The demo was released in 2007 as a 7" and in 2009 it was finally released as a full length. Quick fact: Mike's last show with Rotting Out was last year at Sound and Fury. The band continues on with their former bassist, Walter, as the front man. And they still fucking rule.
