"Enuma elish" by Rotting Christ

Rotting Christ:"Enuma elish", (from the album "Theogonia", 2007):

APSU / TIAMUT / LAHMU AND LAHAM
ANSAR AND KISAR / ANU / NUDIMMUD

When on high the heaven, had not be named
Firm ground below was unnamed

APSU / TIAMUT / LAHMU AND LAHAM
ANSAR AND KISAR / ANU / NUDIMMUD

When on high the heaven, had not be named
Firm ground below was unnamed
Mummu Tiamat she who bore them
Naught primordial Apsu their begetter

CHORUS:

And the earth has been done and the life has just begun
and the formless void and darkness outdone
And the water has been done and the sky raised up
separating the water the genesis goes on
And the greater light has been done and the lesser light spun
to rule the day and night together with the stars
And the living creatures has been done
and the sea monsters have born
and everything that moves with which the waters swarm

She made the Worm the Dragon
The Female Monster the Great Lion
The Mad Dog the Man Scorpion
The Howling Storm

(CHORUS)

And the greater light has been done
and the lesser light spun
to rule the day and night
together with the stars

(lyrics: Sakis Tolis)

(Three years have passed, since black metallers Rotting Christ came up with "Aealo", the most recent full-length from Sakis & Co., and three years more since its predecessor "Theogonia"....erm....hit the road. The greeks are definitely not in a hurry studio-wise, but I can easily live with that, as long as the results cry "QUALITY!!!"....ha ha....

Both "Aealo" and "Theogonia" were january-releases and were, to say the least, perfect ways to start a new year off :-) This time around we´ll have to wait for spring, before the year really kicks in :-), because Rotting Christ´s next album, "Kata ton daimona eaytoy", is set for a march-release....But again, I can easily live with that "as long....", and I´m quite sure it will! "Kata ton daimona eaytoy" is probably going to be one of 2013´s greatest records :-)

While we´re waiting for "Kata...." to show up, let´s be entertaining ourselves with this great "Theogonia"-track "Enuma elish", and please don´t miss the beautiful angel-choir during the song! Alright, it´s totally impossible, I know :-)

See you next time with yet another great heavy metal-song with lyrics, and this time....well, what can I say....independence is definitely put on the table....erm....somewhere in the states :-)

See you :-)

Kind regards
