Rotting Christ have been active since 1987. With 13 studio albums (excl. EP's, compilations and live releases) and +/- 1500 concerts on worldwide tours, the band has stood the test of time through three decades of hard work and dedications. It's a band that pushes the boundaries of Extreme Metal, stays innovative and keeps re-inventing themselves. Their latest album, The Heretics, forced even longtime fans to expect the unexpected from them.
Their new album, Pro Xristoy (Greek for 'Before Christ-B.C.), is a tribute album dedicated to all last Pagan Kings that resisted the coming of Christianism, which destroyed all the values and knowledge of the ancient world. It's an album inspired by the mighty ancient and pagan wisdom that glorify the 'Before Christ' traditions. The album can be described as a cinematic experience that features bombastic atmospheres, mesmerizing choirs, neo-classical arrangement, use of various languages, heavy riffing and intense drumming. Rotting Christ are one of Extreme Metal's most enduring and forward-thinking force. An immense legacy that is ready to take it to the next chapter on Pro Xristoy.
