Gorerotted was a British death metal/grindcore band formed in London in 1997 by members of the disbanded thrash group Embodiment. Known for their chaotic live shows and darkly humorous horror themes, their early lineup featured dual vocalists including Jason "Mr. Gore" Merle and Graham "Nutty Strangeways" Hoddis, with Jeremy Gray on guitars and Steve Smith on bass. After releasing their 1998 demo *Her Gash I Did Slash*, which sold out its 1,500-copy run quickly, they evolved through multiple lineup changes including later members like Ben Goreskin (vocals) and "The Wilson" on bass. Their studio albums *Only Tools And Corpses* (2003) and *A New Dawn For The Dead* (2005) through Metal Blade Records cemented their reputation for brutal, horror-obsessed deathgrind before splitting in 2008 and reforming as The Rotted. Their 2025 single *Tangled Thoughts* marked a posthumous release long after their dissolution.
