Necros Christos ( Greek νεκρός Χριστός for, Dead Christ ') is a German Death Doom - band from Berlin . The band was formed in 2001 and is under contract with Ván Records . The group's discography includes three studio albums.
history
In the first few years the band released three demo and two rehearsal recordings as well as various EPs and singles . The first demo Necromantic Doom was supposed to be the band's only release. In 2006 the band was signed by the record company Sepulchral Voice Records, which released the debut album Triune Impurity Rites a year later .
A short time later, the drummer Luciferus Christhammer left the band and was replaced by Raelin Iakhu. Over a period of four years, the musicians worked on their second album Doom of the Occult , which was released in spring 2011 and received very good reviews from the specialist press.
style
Necros Christos 'music dispenses with high speeds, blastbeats and demonstrations of the musicians' technical ability, and instead focuses on "slow, simple, armor-like heaviness combined with eerie growls and a strange, indefinable occult quality". In connection with the metal subculture, Mors Dalos Ra sees the band more in the tradition of bands like Black Sabbath and Mercyful Fate in terms of their occult orientation than in the modern-sounding, blastbeat- heavy death metal bands. However, his musical inspiration tends to come from eastern folklore, particularly Persia, India and the Arab countries. He cites Italian and German baroque music and old occult 1960s / 1970s rock such as Coven or Salem Mass as another important source , as does The Jimi Hendrix Experience .
Mors Dalos Ra also writes the lyrics for Necros Christos. While his occult interests and studies are mainly related to Kabbalah , most of the texts deal with inverted stories from the Old Testament , the apocalypse in the apocrypha , ancient entities of the cultures of the Middle East, the mysteries of death and the dead, necromancy , Black masses and copulation mixed with his own magical experiences. Mors Dalos Ra explains the name of the band as another name for the amorphous entity of utter damnation and darkness, the black brother of Christ, who is already known by names like Ištar , Ahriman , Shaitan , Satan and Lucifer .
