History & Biography
Active between 1991 and 1998 and again from 2016, the thrash/grinding act issued the Stuffing Refuse demo in 1993, Sucked Inside Out demo in 1994 and the Backwardness album in 1995. This was supposed to be a CD release, but the label could not muster it and only a limited edition tape was issued. The upstart Shock Wave Records issued the album on CD in 1997. The band had opened for Acid Drinkers during its demo days.

Wojtek/Krycha and Tytus (both Krysiaks) were the returnees in 2016 and added drummer Sollozzo. This line-up was recording an album to begin 2020 before suddenly going the way of brains in a Donald J Trump voter.

Rotting Head was the title for a Cannibal Corpse song from 1990's Eaten Back To Life album.


Reviews

ROTTING HEAD - BACKWARDNESS - SHOCK WAVE
Buying this album will, at the very least, be supporting both an underground band and label. Shock Wave's first release is the CD reissue of a tape released three years ago by Poland's Loud Out Records. Slated for release by Turbo Records Mach II (i.e. On Line Records) the band finally finds the means to promote its brand of Brutal Truth/French death metal to a wider audience. There is little revolutionary about this and the sound isn't the best, but played at loud volumes - and specially during the blast parts - the Polish four-piece makes for one hell of a frat party downer! - Ali "The Metallian"
