Slowly We Rot is the debut studio album by American death metal band Obituary, released on June 14, 1989. It is the only Obituary release to feature bassist Daniel Tucker.[2][3] Lead guitarist Allen West would leave soon after but returned for the third album The End Complete (1992). It was re-released on January 27, 1997, by Roadrunner Records with remastered audio and liner notes. Despite being recorded in standard tuning and with Fender Stratocasters,[citation needed] it is considered to be one of the band's heavier efforts. The remainder of the band's output has been recorded in D tuning. A live version of the album, Slowly We Rot: Live & Rotting, was recorded in October 2020 and released in August 2022 by Relapse Records.[4]
Slowly We Rot remains a staple essential album of both death metal and the band's discography.[5]
