    About that song "The voice of the universe"... I felt just the same. At first it was indifferent to me, and then after a few listens of the whole album, I found myself headbanging to that song, without even realizing it!

  • @Thekevmannn
    @Thekevmannn 5 лет назад +3

    Rotting Christ is by far my favorite band and had the biggest impact on me. I started listening to them when I was 13 and never heard anything like it. They were able to create an entirely new feeling every album. I believe Theogonia was their last incredible album where I loved every single song. After that something changed and I just wasn't feeling the music as much. I wasn't being transported to these amazing places that their old music used to take me. I still 100% support them and I will continue listening to them until I die. If this album is what you are basing your opinion on please go back and listen to Genesis or Sleep of the angels(personal favorite) or as late as Theogonia because they are truly incredible albums.

    This was a great band but the last couple of albums have been really weak to include this one. I jumped in on Theogonia which was great and I worked my way backwards all the way to Thy Mighty Contract which was just way ahead of its time and holds up so damn well. It just seems like these guys have lost that certain something, but they carried the torch consistently for so long that it is understandable to run out of ideas. There is still some great riffs and ideas but they dont work as well as they used to or at least they dont come across as cool or innovative as they used to.

      I think that the record is actually great, and different. Since Rituals, they seem to have shifted their approach a bit, from epic bm songs with dynamics, to something more soundtrack-based, where what prevails are sensations, evocations, bombast and atmospherics. I feel that if listened to with this intent in mind, Heretics is actually extremely enjoyable and makes a lot more sense.
      So yeah, everybody should give this a chance and decide for themselves. I for one think they paint some great epic and majestic soundscapes, verging on the hypnotic side of things.

  • @stamatisgiallolover9713

    Older albums up until Theogonia were amazing but without a serious label promotion, packaging or even production. Last few albums it's the other way around. Not much inspiration, kindergarten lyrics, not enough metal riffs just ambient. At least the band still rules live.

    • @laporte1625
      @laporte1625 5 лет назад +4

      I agree the lyrics on this album could have been a lot better (and... richer in content). But I actually think that "Kατά Τον Δαίμονα Εαυτού" is one of the best metal albums ever released. And as for this one... although I don 't know if it will produce any "hit singles" like "Athanatoi Este", "Nemecic", "Kατά Τον Δαίμονα Εαυτού" or "'Ελθε Κύριε"... I like it more and more as a whole entity.

    Rotting Christ was so badass on their first records, continued great up to Κατά τον Δαίμονα Εαυτού, yet they seem so boring on Rituals and this one. I really don't know how a black metal pioneering band ended up being like this. It reminds me of Metallica, thrash pioneers and now they have nothing more to offer. Love Rotting Christ but listening to Triarchy of the Lost Lovers, Non Serviam, Theogonia, Thy Mighty Contact, A Dead Poem and then this, it's day with night

    It's a good album not awesome just good. Aealo has been they're pinnacle of an album for me especially in pumping me up while weight lifting. Felt like it should've been the soundtrack for the 300 films. Albums afterwards gave gone more towards occult ritualistic stuff especially Rituals. Heretics follows in the same vein but there's more strong structures here. I didn't notice much singing on Rituals it felt more like a blasphemic occult spoken word album. Though as the Bangers review stated on Heretics we get a lot of philosophically spoken samples but with Sakis singing and not just chanting or doing a spoken word.
