Rotting Christ: The Occult Journey of Katà ton DaÃmona Eautoú
Rotting Christ is a Greek extreme metal band that has been pushing the boundaries of their genre for over three decades. Their eleventh studio album, Katà ton DaÃmona Eautoú, released in 2013, is a testament to their creativity and diversity. The album title, which means \"true to your own spirit\" in Greek, reflects the band's exploration of ancient civilizations and their dark occultism.
The album features ten tracks that span different cultures and languages, from Incan and Persian to Slavic and Romanian. Each track is a musical journey into the myths and rituals of these ancient peoples, blending black metal with folk elements, atmospheric keyboards, and choirs. The album also incorporates diverse instruments, such as bagpipes, horns, and piano, adding to the richness and variety of the sound.
The album opens with \"In Yumen-Xibalba\", a track that combines Mayan mythology with Dante's Inferno. The song depicts the descent into the underworld of Xibalba, where the dead face various trials and torments. The song is fast and aggressive, with blast beats, tremolo picking, and harsh vocals. The song also features a spoken word passage in ancient Greek, reciting a verse from the Odyssey.
The next track, \"P'unchaw kachun-Tuta kachun\", is inspired by the Incan civilization and their worship of the sun god Inti. The song title means \"daybreak-dusk\" in Quechua, the language of the Incas. The song is melodic and epic, with soaring guitar solos and chants in Quechua. The song also has a folkloric touch, with bagpipes and flutes adding to the atmosphere.
\"Grandis Spiritus Diavolos\" is one of the most straightforward and catchy tracks on the album. The song title means \"great spirit of the devil\" in Latin, and the lyrics are based on a medieval grimoire called The Grand Grimoire. The song is a hymn to Lucifer, the fallen angel who rebelled against God. The song has a powerful chorus, with Sakis Tolis singing \"Grandis Spiritus Diavolos\" in a deep and commanding voice.
The title track, \"Katà ton DaÃmona Eautoú\", is based on the famous motto of Aleister Crowley and Thelema: \"Do what thou wilt\". The song is a celebration of individualism and freedom, rejecting any external authority or dogma. The song is fast and furious, with thrashy riffs and blast beats. The song also features a female choir singing in Greek, adding a contrast to the harsh vocals.
\"Cine iubeÈte Èi lasÄ\" is a cover of a traditional Romanian song that means \"who loves and leaves\". The song is a ballad about a woman who laments her lover's departure. The song is sung by Eleni Vougioukli, a Greek singer who specializes in Balkan music. The song is beautiful and melancholic, with piano and acoustic guitar accompanying the vocals.
\"Iwa Voodoo\" is a track that delves into the Haitian religion of Voodoo and its rituals. The song title means \"voodoo spirit\" in Haitian Creole. The song is dark and mysterious, with tribal drums, chants, and whispers creating a spooky atmosphere. The song also features some electronic elements, such as synths and samples.
\"GilgameÅ\" is a track that tells the story of Gilgamesh, the legendary king of Uruk who searched for immortality in ancient Mesopotamia. The song is based on the Epic of Gilgamesh, one of the oldest works of literature in history. The song is epic and majestic, with symphonic keyboards and choirs enhancing the mood. The song also features a guest guitar solo by George Emmanuel from Chaostar.
