Black metal masters ROTTING CHRIST have debuted the title track off of their forthcoming album, ‘ΚΑΤΑ ΤΟΝ ΔΑΙΜΟΝΑ ΕΑΥΤΟΥ’ (“Do What Thou Wilt”). “Kata Ton Daimona Eaftou” is streaming now at MetalManiacs.com.

‘ΚΑΤΑ ΤΟΝ ΔΑΙΜΟΝΑ ΕΑΥΤΟΥ’ personifies the legendary Greek band’s profound and majestic metal, which honors both their country’s heritage as well as ancient cultures worldwide. On ‘ΚΑΤΑ ΤΟΝ ΔΑΙΜΟΝΑ ΕΑΥΤΟΥ’, ROTTING CHRIST embellish their signature dark metal with Sumerian and Incan poetry and as well as flourishes from Romanian folk song, and lyrics inspired by tales of undead Russian water spirits, Voodoo, Zoroastrianism and other sources.

Founder/Guitarist/Frontman Sakis Tolis revealed in an interview with Soundshock.com: “I’m very satisfied with this new album. I find it is very important for me to have a unique sound – [ROTTING CHRIST] doesn’t want to sound like anyone else. You are going to read a lot of different lyrics in different languages-strange and ancient languages; it’s something different…”
