July 17, 2013

Riff-Mag.com conducted an interview with Greek extreme metal veterans ROTTING CHRIST at this year's Hellfest, which was held June 21-23 in Clisson, France. You can now watch the chat below.

ROTTING CHRIST's eleventh full-length studio album, "Kata Ton Demona Eaftou", was released on March 5 (four days earlier in Europe) via Season Of Mist. The band spent more than four months at Deva Soundz studios in Athens crafting what it says "may be its darkest and more mystical and occult outcome ever." The CD was mixed by Jens Borgen (AMON AMARTH, PARADISE LOST, KATATONIA, OPETH) at Fascination Street Studios in Örebro, Sweden.

According to a press release, "the principle of Do What Thou Wilt is the threat leading through this amazing album, which is inspired by ancient cultures around the globe. ROTTING CHRIST employ poetry from the Sumerians and Incas as well as a Romanian folk song, the tale of an undead Russian water spirit, Voodoo, Zoroastrianism and other sources."
