New Rotting Christ Release 2009-12-06 by Observer EMERITUS | 10 Comments | Rotting Christ has released some album information for their upcoming release. Aealo will be released on February 15th and 23rd for Europe and North America respectively.
The following update can be found in the link below:
The title is inspired from the ancient Greek word ???? which means thresh-destruction. An distinctive twisted album that is drawing from the bands country’s ancient heritage that translate this rich history into the universal language of metal.
Frontman Sakis explains: "A concept album that is refered on the feelings of a warrior during a battle. Yes in the end you feel like you were on a real battle…So strong the atmosphere of war. It is a concept album that is refered on the feelings of a warrior during a battle…The anger the fear the grief…feelings that anyone can have when he tries to survive during a battle! Hey nothing to do with a right wind-nazi ideology …It is exactly the opposite! When you end up with the listening you feel like you escaped from a battle!You will hate war!"
According to a band update, "Aealo''s sound and riffing becomes transformed by traditional female lamenting choirs and ancient reed pipes as well as folkloristic melodies and rhythms into something fresh and fascinating. In combining their Metal and cultural heritage, Rotting Christ remain true to the black roots of their founding in 1987 and at the same time strengthen their brotherhoodin spirit with equally individualist groups. This band is illustrated by a stunning guest performance of the Irish band's vocalist Alan A. Nemtheanga, while a no less amazing contribution comes from Greek-American diva extreme DIAMANDA GALAS in a cover version of her 'Orders From The Dead' song!
Also there are and some other guests like Magus Wampyr Daoloth (NECROMANTIA), Daimoneia Nymphe and Dirty Granny Tales that add their twisted and unique spots in this album’s atmosphere."
