'Rituals' is the twelfth full-length album by Greek extreme metal band Rotting Christ. Greek metal giants Rotting Christ formed in Athens back in 1987. Over the decades, they have gained a massive following, with records such as 'Theogonia' in 2007 and 'Aealo' in 2010 being hits among audiences.
'Rituals' is a phenomenal album in pretty much every facet. It utterly dominates in terms of both vigor and atmosphere, and the musicianship, production, and writing all pass with flying colors. Each song has something different and stimulating to offer, but as a singular piece, they work off of one another greatly, making for a very dynamic and impressive release. It's definitely an easy contender for album of 2016, and anyone looking for something raw, epic, haunting, and all-around empowering will no doubt get their fix here. 'Rituals' is a musical triumph.
