Los Angeles hardcore group, Rotting Out, are currently streaming a new track entitled “No Clue” off of their upcoming 6131 Records sophomore LP, The Wrong Way, exclusively over at Terrorizer.
Here’s what vocalist Walter Delgado had to say about the track:“No Clue’ is the song that was pure anger on the record. Fuck the bullshit, fuck the fakes, fuck everyone in my life that never gave it to me straight. Didn’t try using metaphors or clever lines because I wanted it to be organic and raw.”
Pre-order The Wrong Way here and be sure to check out Rotting Out on their upcoming West Coast tour with Milwaukee brethren Expire, details below. In addition, for our fellow California Aftermathers, Rotting Out are shooting a music video tomorrow at Unit B Skatepark in Santa Ana, poster and details for that event are also below.
