As they continue to celebrate 35 years of evil existence, Rotting Christ are kicking off the new year by reinforcing one of the most important pillars in their expansive discography.
Rotting Christ are now streaming “Santa Muerte” from their re-recorded version of AEALO, originally released as the band’s 11th studio album. The revamped edition has been re-recorded, remixed, and remastered, boasting modern production, a richer and more powerful mix, and brand-new cover artwork, all while staying true to the spirit of the original release.
Often regarded as a defining record from Rotting Christ‘s Hellenic era, AEALO stands out for its fusion of black metal with traditional Greek melodies and ritualistic atmosphere. According to the band, the updated version enhances everything that made the album such a cornerstone, without sacrificing its original identity.
Vocalist and guitarist Sakis Tolis shared a message to fans alongside the announcement: “Dear friends, we have re-recorded, remixed and remastered our 11th album AEALO with deep respect for the original recording. We are proud to present to you the first sample from the album with a new video for its title track.”
The release of the re-recorded AEALO follows last year’s live album 35 Years of Evil Existence – Live in Lycabettus and continues Rotting Christ‘s ongoing celebration of their long and influential career. Pre-orders for AEALO are available here.
