Rottenness is a Brutal death/grind band from Mexico.

The band was formed around 1994 in the city of Cancun, Mexico. Due there was no metal scene in their area they start to play shows around Mexico. Their first e.p. came out on 1998 “Blasphemous Gore Enjoyment” under the label Emerald City. On the year 2000 they entered the Oigo Estudios in Guadalajara to record their first full cd: “Inhuman Ways of Depravity”.

Around 2005 the band had their first American invitation, at the Maryland Death fest in Baltimore, but for some legal problems, the band had to cancel and make it happen until 2010. Instead of this, they make their first Mexican tour. This time playing for 3 weeks around all México beside PUNGENT STENCH (Aus).
