SARCÓFAGO‘s second album "Rotting" will be re-released on vinyl on May 27, 2014 through Greyhaze Records. It has been remastered and will be housed in a deluxe gatefold jacket, which will feature the original artwork, including a full-color gatefold insert. It will be available in two vinyl colors: black and limited green with black smoke. A CD / DVD digipak edition of the release is currently in the works as well. The release date will be announced soon. SARCÓFAGO’S drummer during the "Rotting" sessions, Manu (Joker), had this to say about his time with the band during that era: "Rotting" is one hell of an album. Even though I recognize the importance of "INRI", "Rotting" is still my favorite SARCÓFAGO album. It’s better built than the previous album, but it still maintains that elemental rawness. The "Rotting" era was a great time. Wagner did an outstanding job. We were an interesting trio, and when (Fabio) Jhasko joined the band, our firepower became even greater! Excellent memories!"
