On January 2005 Spinefarm released "Exit"-album, which went immediately to the Finnish charts and stayed for three weeks. "Exit" also received praising reviews from different medias around the world and was claimed as one of the most important extreme releases of the year 2005. After the release of "Exit" Rotten Sound toured in Scandinavia, U.S. and went on a second headlining tour in Europe during January 2006.
Sami Latva joined Rotten Sound in February 2006 to replace long-time drummer, Kai Hahto. The band was expecting to go on a hiatus in 2006, but, thanks to Sami, could start to prepare for the next studio session immediately. They recorded eight new songs for "Consume to Contaminate"-MCD during April 2006. Lyrical content of "Consume to Contaminate" is handling again difficult issues on this globe with loads of cynisism and a touch of death.
Rotten Sound has made four full length albums, ten shorter releases, five European tours, two U.S.-tours, three scandinavian tours and is one of the leading bands in grind-core. Now "Consume to Contaminate" introduces the new heavy, aggressive and insane Rotten Sound: a band which is prepared to take destructive powers of grind-core a few big leaps ahead.

Rotten Sound Lyrics

[Lyrics: Jorma, Keijo]
Like they wear you wear
Like they think to do you do
Like they don't think you don't think
Personality, you don't have single one
Everything in your head is gone
Follow the big business
And fall into the emptiness
Stop not to think
The only way to not is sink
Do it yourself
You don't need anybody's help
Personality, you don't have single one
Everything in your head is gone
Follow the big business
And fall into the emptiness
Stop not to think
The only way to not is sink
Do it yourself
You don't need anybody's help
The lyrics to Rotten Sound's song Braindead suggest a loss of individuality and a surrender to conformity. The opening lines "Like they wear you wear, like they think to do you do" implies that the person is a follower who mirrors the behaviors and attitudes of others around them without any individuality of their own. The lack of personality is highlighted in the line "Personality, you don't have a single one, everything in your head is gone". This highlights that the person has lost their sense of self, and their thoughts and beliefs have been replaced by the opinions of others.
The lyrics also suggest a submission to capitalism, capitalism being represented by the following line "Follow the big business and fall into the emptiness". The emptiness spoken about is likely to represent a lack of fulfillment and a sense of existential crisis as the person blindly follows the system, without any consideration of their own values and beliefs. The final lines "Stop not to think, the only way to not is sink, do it yourself, you don't need anybody's help" suggest that the way to avoid the emptiness and reclaim one's sense of individuality is to stop following others blindly and to start thinking critically for oneself, to be self-reliant.
Line by Line Meaning
Like they wear you wear
You imitate other people around you
Like they think to do you do
Whatever others think, you do it without questioning it
Like they act you act
You mirror the actions of others like a puppet
Like they don't think you don't think
You don't think for yourself, you just follow blindly
Personality, you don't have single one
You lack individuality and personal identity
Everything in your head is gone
You have lost your ability to think for yourself
Follow the big business
You blindly follow corporations and their interests
And fall into the emptiness
You end up feeling empty and unfulfilled
Stop not to think
You never pause to contemplate your actions
The only way to not is sink
You feel that if you stop following, you will fail
Do it yourself
You should try to think and act independently
You don't need anybody's help
You should rely on your own thoughts rather than blindly adhering to others
