Rott
Rott on! The story begins. Rott came about after singer Molly Sirenne brings over her huge Rottweiler and belts out some Shirley Manson tune over the PA. The rest of the band is stunned. Not just because her Rottweiler Alika is chewing on the Vic Firth 5B's but something else. This chick can really sing. "Put those Tool lyrics down a second and lets jam some Otep." And so it continued...
Rott entered the studio in April 2007 and released the single “Afterlife” June 1, 2007 which appears on their new release “Out of Time”. “Afterlife” was an immediate hit for fans starving for new material from the group which hails from Spirit Lake, Idaho where they formed in May 2001. The single was picked up immediately on Internet radio station Livehardrock.com and an interview with lead singer Molly Sirenne on mainstream rock station Rock 94 ½ in Spokane, Washington followed on June 8th.
This is not the first time the band has received such amazing support from media and fans alike. “I am so fortunate to have such a positive response from fans,” said lead singer Molly, “it is so awesome.”
Thanks to the overwhelming response from European fans after their 2002 debut CD received airplay in Greece, Rott then became noticed in major webzines Born to Die’zine in Poland, Temple of Metal in Greece, rock-in-chair.com in France and even received attention in Argentina from webzine musicextreme.com.
Since that time, Rott has developed a following in Europe, South America, Mexico, Australia, Asia and the United States.
Some of the bands influences include Lacuna Coil, Tool, Alice in Chains, Evanescence, Within Temptation and Otep as well as old-school speed metal bands.
