DEVIL LEE ROT is an eccentric metal fan; having been in several unserious metal bands. After going nowhere with this, he decided to work on a solo project. After garnering a little success the band of DEVIL LEE ROT decided to think of this band more seriously. After releasing several demos they are now ready to release their 3rd full-length release At Hell's Deep.

I lied when I called this an album, it’s a time machine and it took me to the 80s. Old school riffs with a new school spin. When I first saw the cover of this I couldn't help but think "Oh my god! This is horrible", and was quite reluctant to hear it. But as they say "Don't judge a book by its cover" and this isn't really that bad. Guitar driven with headbang worthy execution, growling death metal-esque vocals add a newer feel on an older style. Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks, eh? So grab a brew and get ready to take a journey back in time.
