Rotting Christ‘s live album, “Lucifer Over Athens,” is a powerful testament to the band’s enduring legacy in the black metal scene. Recorded during their 2013 performance at the Kyttaro Club in Athens, Greece, this album captures the raw energy and intensity that Rotting Christ is known for delivering in their live shows.

From the moment the album kicks off with the haunting intro, the listener is drawn into a dark and atmospheric journey through the band’s discography. The band’s performance is tight and focused, with frontman Sakis Tolis commanding the stage with his fierce vocals and intricate guitar work. The setlist is a carefully curated selection of fan favorites and classic tracks, showcasing the band’s evolution over the years. One of the standout elements of “Lucifer Over Athens” is the production quality, which captures the essence of sound while still maintaining the energy of a live performance.

The mix is balanced, allowing each instrument to shine through without overpowering the others. The crowd’s enthusiastic response adds to the overall atmosphere, creating a sense of camar aderie between the band and their fans. As the album progresses, Rotting Christ delves into their darker and more atmospheric tracks, creating a sense of unease and tension that is characteristic of their music. The band’s ability to weave together elements of black metal, gothic undertones, and traditional Greek influences is on full display, showcasing their unique and innovative approach to the genre.

This album is released on vinyl with a Deluxe Gatefold cover, in two editions: Gold mirror surface cover + Gold Vinyl, Silver mirror surface cover + Silver Vinyl), each edition is limited to 500 copies.

Also available a very special Deluxe edition in Box, including poster and a special printing.
