Rotten Mind Unflavored (Transparent)

Unflavored is the fifth studio album by Swedish punk outfit Rotten Mind. The album picks up where the group's latest full-length Rat City Dog Boy from 2020 left off. The influences from post punk and dark wave heard on previous albums are now even more predominant, contributing to gloomy soundscapes and darkened melodies throughout the album. At its core, the straight forward punk rock that characterizes Rotten Mind's early albums is still a driving force in the sound. With frontman Jakob Arvidsson's distinctive vocals on top of the mix, Unflavored sets itself apart, unifying 77' punk, post-punk, dark wave, and garage rock into a unique punk expression. Unflavored contains 12 tracks. The album was recorded, mixed and mastered by Kristofer Jönson from the band Jeniferever at studio Turbinen in Uppsala, Sweden.
