Also, it's never too late to get acquainted to the band's past ya know. Who knows, if you do, maybe it'll actually change your mind about them.
I was just thinking of this yesterday. I'm sure their earlier stuff will please me seeing as it's probably rooted in a more raw production.

It is, but honestly, Rotting Christ never had production that could be fully classified as raw. It's rawer than nowadays, for sure, but it's still pretty thick and tries to highlight the melodies. Do give Thy Mighty Contract a spin though, I think you could enjoy it. If you don't, this band probably just isn't for you.

The title comes from ancient greek, meaning something like "act however you will"
I think this is also engraved in Jim Morrison's tombstone

Their past 5 albums are all really good, but I need to get back into their early albums too. Heard them all years ago, but I can't remember them at all except for Non Serviam, which is awesome.

Fuck this rules. Going through it a second time right now.

Well shit I guess I gotta listen to this now. Great work as usual Metalstyles, keep it up!

It's called black metal, not blackened metal. "Blackened" should only be used to describe hybrids of genres, like blackened death, blackened doom, blackened crust, etc. Sorry, I'm a snob when it comes to metal, and I get the wrong impression of someone if these use the term "blackened metal" in the summary, the first thing anyone reads before a review.

I used blackened because this album is far from being a typical black metal record. There are many people to whom Kata Ton Daimona Eaytoy may be the first taste of the band, so I didn't want to leave the impression that they'd be hearing a standard fare black metal album. There are black metal dynamics to be found, but they're mixed with goth and folk influences into Rotting Christ's unique sound, making them a hybrid band. I'm not using blackened as a genre descriptor (which becomes very clear once you've read the whole review), but simply as an adjective.
Thanks Kyle and I intend to. PS, I'm hoping you'll love this haha.

Yeah what i've heard from this hasn't been BM really. Blackened is a perfect adjective, i think.

I mean it's still primarily black metal, but (as Metalstyles said) there's definitely heavy goth/folk influences. So yeah, blackened metal works just fine.
