Additional info
'Abyssic Black Metal' compiles the early works of the band, from the more grind-laced early recordings of a band finding their own direction, plus the all-time classic 'Satanas Tedeum' release which paved the way for the band's melodic and atmospheric style of black metal, along with the early obscure EPs.

The collection also notably features the 1995 promo release, containing raw stripped down renditions of tracks to feature on the band's eventual third full-length release, 'Triarchy Of The Lost Lovers'. This vinyl edition of 'Abyssic Black Metal' marks the 30th anniversary of Rotting Christ and is presented on double gatefold vinyl, containing rare cover art from the early era of the band.
