Rotting is the second LP from the Brazilian band Sarcófago.

In 1989, after I.N.R.I.'s huge repercussion, Sarcófago was already considered one of the top Black/Death metal bands all over the world. Drummer D. D. Crazy left the band to join Sextrash, and M. Joker took over the drums. After a short tour, the band headed for the studios to record its second album: Rotting.

The album's themes were extremely heavy for that time, and the band can surely be considered one of the predecessors of the whole Black metal scene still present in the world. In terms of heavy music, it is one of the most polemic albums ever released. The band left an eternal mark with its sound and the most commented cover of the Metal scene.

The LP was licensed to Music for Nations, in Europe, and in the US the cover was censored. Later, the CD was seized by the authorities from European importers and distributors, once again because of its cover. This generated enormous polemic among the Metal scene. The album features "Nightmare", Sarcófago's greatest hymn, and "Sex, Drinks And Metal", a summary of the band's philosophy.
