Rotting Christ release new single “Like Father, Like Son”
Rotting Christ’s new album “Pro Xristoy” will be released on May 24th via Season Of Mist
Rotting Christ have stood the test of time. While their name has caused plenty of gatekeepers to clutch their pearls, Sakis Tolis and his brother Themis have ascended from Greece’s blackened catacombs to one of metal’s most formidable bands. In the echoes of heritage, Like Father, Like Son emerges – a hymn that resonates with the timeless message of pride, honor, and the indomitable spirit of Rotting Christ. The first single off Pro Xristou presents a tale of the profound wisdom of a father’s legacy, a powerful testament to passion, love, and faith. Haunting whispers of a departed father linger, shaping the identity of the son who walks in his shadow.
Incredibly catchy riffs, supplemented by Themis‘ steadfast drumming style create an anthem that stands through the ages. It’s impossible not to chant along Sakis‘ fierce Like Father, Like Son line during the song’s emblematic chorus that remains embedded in your memory long after the final notes ring out.
Listen to the new song Like Father, Like Son below:
Sakis Tholis and his brother Themis started this band together back in 1987 when they changed their name from Black Church to Rotting Christ. In the three decades since, these Greek titans have left their blackened imprint all over the metal world: they’ve released 13 studio albums and played more than 13.000 concerts around the globe. Underneath all this hard work, Rotting Christ have but one vision – an urge to not only push the boundaries of extreme metal, but to keep reinventing themselves along the way.
Rotting Christ‘s evolution has unfolded across several distinct chapters. After starting out closer to the barely controlled chaos of grindcore, they went on to establish the iconic sound of Hellenic black metal. Their albums often embrace refined gothic soundscapes, only to plunge back into the depths of blasphemous fervour. Each chapter marked another, further exploration, and an unwavering commitment to bush boundaries.
