Rotting Christ have released a new lyric video in support of their latest album Rituals, which was released worldwide on 12 February 2016 via Season of Mist. The track features Samael (Vorph) as guest-vocalist, reciting in the original French language from Charles Baudelaire’s masterpiece, Les Fleurs du Mal, which inspired the song, Les Litanies de Satan.
Frontman Sakis Tolis comments: “Dear friends, we proudly present to you our second official lyric video created for a song taken from our current album ‘Rituals’. The song ‘Le Litanies de Satan’ has been inspired by a fascinating literary masterpiece, namely Charles Baudelaire’s grand creation ‘Fleurs du Mal’. These dark flowers have been greatly enhanced by our long-time friend Vorph from SAMAEL, who has kindly lent us his amazing voice to read the original French text. We cannot thank him enough. Enjoy this unholy beauty!”
