SEASON OF MIST
A new wave of singalong, Hellenic blasphemy
Rotting Christ have gone all in on the grandeur

PARAGONS OF RELIABILITY, Rotting Christ are widely acknowledged to be one of those rare bands that never release bad records. Rather than engaging in nervous speculation, long-time fans can simply sit back and wait for the band’s next imperious statement, safe in the knowledge that everything Rotting Christ do, they do with distinction.
Impressively, they remain eminently capable of surprises. Deep into their fourth decade, Sakis Tolis and his comrades seem to have made the most overtly accessible album of their careers. Pro Xristou is still resolutely dark as fuck, of course, but listeners could find themselves humming these tunes, even as humanity circles the plughole.
