ROTTING CHRIST - THE HERETICS

The Heretics is Rotting Christ's 13th album and was released in 2019. First, the cover art that was made by Maximos Manolis already catches the eye and automatically notes the connection to the album title. Musically, the Tolis brothers (Sakis and Themis) have made The Heretics follow a more modern line by assimilating a bit with Rituals, the 2016 album, where it pleases those who enjoy Soulfly (the track "Heaven and Hell and Fire" is a good example) and Behemoth, for example. Another interesting point of The Heretics is that the lyrics were written in English, Russian (the track "Ветры злые" - "Vetry zlye"), Latin (the track "Dies Irae"), Greek (the track "Πιστεύω" - "I Believe") and Arabian (the track "The Voice of the Universe"), as well as quotes from authors such as Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Mark Twain, Friedrich Nietzsche, John Muir, Thomas Paine, William Shakespeare, Nikolaos Kazantzakis ("Πιστεύω" - "I Believe" was based on one of his poems), Voltaire and Edgar Allan Poe ("The Raven" was based on on his poem of the same name). Well, The Heretics is a cool album.

The Heretics é o décimo terceiro álbum da Rotting Christ e foi lançado em 2019. De cara, a capa que foi feita por Maximos Manolis já chama a atenção e automaticamente nota-se a conexão com o título do álbum. Musicalmente, os irmãos Tolis (Sakis e Themis) fizeram The Heretics seguir uma linha mais moderna assimilando um pouco com Rituals, o álbum de 2016, na qual poderá agradar quem curte Soulfly (a faixa "Heaven and Hell and Fire" é um bom exemplo) e Behemoth, por exemplo. Outro ponto interessante de The Heretics são as letras que foram escritas em inglês, russo (a faixa "Ветры злые" - "Vetry zlye"), latim (a faixa "Dies Irae"), grego (a faixa "Πιστεύω" - "I Believe") e árabe (a faixa "The Voice of the Universe"), além das citações de autores como Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Mark Twain, Friedrich Nietzsche, John Muir, Thomas Paine, William Shakespeare, Nikolaos Kazantzakis ("Πιστεύω" - "I Believe" foi baseada em um poema escrito por ele), Voltaire e Edgar Allan Poe ("The Raven" foi baseada em um poema escrito por ele). Bom, The Heretics é um álbum legal.
