Rotting Corpse

The name alone could incite panic and disgust, but Rotting Corpse just wants to throw a (pizza) party! Frontman Walter Trachsler joins us to discuss the band’s recent resurgence thanks to some unlikely gigs, its decades-long history as pioneers of Texas death-metal thrash, and what it was like growing up with a certain pair of Abbott brothers. He also shares his unorthodox childhood, his time with tech-metal icons, Death, a brush with the Cult and why he’s cautious about sharing his band’s name with those who may not find the humor.
