Rotting Christ Prepare New Album

Rotting Christ, a Greek band with a name that is best described as blasphemous, although some would argue that it more resembles madness. Madness...? This is AN OVERDONE GREEK JOKE!!!!!!!!!! (Kicks some random guy down a well.)

Sorry, I just had to do it.

Anyway, the Tolis brothers are now recording their follow up to Theogonia to be released next January and if past albums have been any indication, then this album is going to rock given that Rotting Christ are one of the most consistent bands that I've ever listened to. Oh, and Sakis Tolis is still one of the greatest riff writers within the black metal scene, which (with any luck) will lead to thier new album being chock full of melodic goodness.

And for those of you unfamiliar with Rotting Christ, they're the best melodic black metal this side of Immortal... Or you can call them the best melodic black metal band to not wear corpsepaint or other forms of ridiculous costuming in which which case they're the undisputed kings due to a lack of competition. Here's a video of them playing in 2007:
