Rotting Christ have seen fit to surprise release a pair of new EPs titled “The Apocryphal Spells, Vol. I” and “The Apocryphal Spells, Vol. II” today, December 15th. The Greek black metal outfit compiled a series of tracks that were previously only available on select physical releases for this new set.
Vocalist/guitarist Sakis Tolis offered:
“My dear friends, I can proudly announce a compilation of rare Rotting Christ tracks that have never been released on digital platforms before. We have now the opportunity to release them via the first part of a compilation: ‘The Apocryphal Spells‘. Thanks for your attention, and I hope you will enjoy them, as we also did, recording them back in the days. Spirit Up!”
