Lay Down Rotten

LAY DOWN ROTTEN were formed in Herborn, Germany back in 1999 as a solo project by vocalist Daniel Jakobi. He wrote the first few songs on his own, then deciding to carry on with the project. After showing his material to some fellow musicians, Timo Claas, Johannes Pitz and Daniel “Mini” Benner joined the band in May 2000, turning Jakobi’s solo project into LAY DOWN ROTTEN. Already in November 2000 the group recorded its first 4-track demo CD entitled “Colder As Cold”, which was met with very good reactions.
