sashavonkarl74 Oh my this is so good! I was like, "how come the singing dude sounds like Necroabyssious from Varathron?" ha ha! checked the line-up, all made perfect sense :))
This is a grandiose opus FFO of Rotting Christ, Varathron, Kawir, Deviser, Ravencult, and the other great names of the Hellenic BM scene!!! Favorite track: De Rerum Natura.
