I’ve always felt that the guitar tone and the name of the song fit perfectly together. The tone (especially in that intro riff) just sounds so slimy, putrescent and rotten.

I was there, front row, somewhere in the pit. I was working as a stage hand at the tent stage, and I operated the changing banners for some awful power metal band. When Obituary started to play, I just said "see ya" and left them standing to see Obituary. They were pissed and I did not get paid, but I didn't care. I had a blast! Death Metal Victory.

I've watched all of the available content from this live. What is really you cool is you can see Frank constantly checking on Alan every now and then if he is going to go through the gig. Apart from that this is my favorite Slowly we rot live performance. Guitars in different keys, slow tempo, everything makes is really bad*ss.

@XingFisher666 Just listened back to it, pretty sure that's Trevor in the left channel and you're right he's sharp. If my ears don't deceive me, Allen and Frank are playing in same key, but Frank looking at him like he's wrong suggests that it's something that's happened before. It's happened to me in bands. Although once a bee landed on my bass while on tour in Italy and I couldn't play. I kept shouting "BEE!" at other guitarist. He kept shouting "CEE!!" back at me.

@MarkPJordan Haha hilarous story with the bee. :-) Still it's a pity about Allen, especially since he was really one of my favourite guitar players when I was a kid. Actually he got me into playing leads, the way he played was different than most did. He played more lightning fast blues scales and they always were really recognizable to me and not pointless shred. Drugs are bad.

@MarkPJordan I just saw your reaction after I posted about the same part. But unless they together decided to play the beginning part 2 semitones higher for Wacken, Allen is the one playing right. Compare to the original version and all other versions on KZbin, Allen is the one playing in key, although it doesn't look like it. :-) For the rest I agree it's a pity, I hope Allen can ditch the drugs.

I have seen them on Fuck The Commerce Festival in 2005. They were so bad I left before they played "Slowly we Rot" 😅 But I have to admit that with more live practice the become were good since those times. But come on, if you think this is good... don't be silly and don't call yourself music fan.

Definitely the soloist is playing sharp, Trevor is playing in D. Frank the bass player even stands looking at him at 0:40 to see if he knows he's playing in the wrong key and Allen just kind of looks back at him plaintively. His timing's also all over the place throughout the song. Pity.
