![]() In as far as having expectation for Kata Ton Daimona Eaytoy – would a hells yeah suffice? As a well matured band, and with Aealo already angrily reviewed some time back, I doubt Rotting Christ need much introduction, save to say that their style has shifted from that of deathgrind on their earlier releases, to a more dark, violent and sometimes gothic influenced black metal sound on later releases and now, forming an unholy trinity with Theogonia and Aealo, they continue weaving the native element into their dark tapestry that bears similarities to Septicflesh, Old Man’s Child, Behemoth and Samael. ![]() ![]() I’m always enchanted by a band or album that pushes me to think outside the box, compelling me at 2 am to seek out the translation of an old Romanian curse, making me read up on Voodoo and at the same time the i’m knee deep in the teachings of Aleister Crowley – now that’s what metal’s about ! Aleister Crowley wrote ‘ Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law’ and I’m pleased Greek icons Rotting Christ decided to use this credo as the basis for their 11 th full-length release Κατά τον Δαίμονον Εαυτού (meaning ‘ Do what thou wilt’).
