I think I would've been able to wait a little bit longer.

Great new album!

Absolutely incredible, this is a jewel that only comes once in a lifetime. This could really compete for the best 2013 album without much effort and competition. Seems like Greece still has a lot to offer, Septicflesh in 2011 with The Great Mass, Nightfall early this year with Cassiopeia and now Rotting Christ, awesomeness!

Much much much better than aealo. even though, it still lacks creativity at some points as RC still continue the successful musical formula of Theogonia; fact that makes them a bit repetitive but thankfully this happens rarely in this album in comparison with aealo. There are some highlights like the title song and In Yumen/Xibalba and the very good songs Gilgame?, ΧΞΣ and Ahura Mazdā-Aŋra Mainiuu. In addition, the cover of that Romanian folk song is great and gives a very dark and spine-chilling feeling and it fits perfectly to the whole album's atmosphere. Another little thing that I didn't like is Sakis' vocals. Ok, I know he's not 18 anymore but still the vocals could be better.
Generally, in my opinion RC made it again and this is a beast of an album. I would rate it with an 8 out of 10, but I'll give it a few more listens to conclude to that.

1st time I listened to it ^^^ a slow smile grew upon my withered face... I love it when that happens.

Being I am not familiar with anything prior to Sanctus Diavolos, my opinion might not mean much, but this release is really nice. I personally find it better than Theogonia. "Cine Iubeste Si Lasa" is definitely worthy of a slow smile.
