Rotting Christ Release Re-Recorded Version of “Santa Muerte”

Celebrating their 35th year as a band, Rotting Christ is releasing a re-recorded version of their 11th studio album AEALO. With only a few weeks remaining before that comes out, the band put out the new version of their song “Santa Muerte”.

This track was re-recorded, but it was also remixed, remastered, and done with all modern production methods in mind. The result is a fuller sounding mix that should excite any Rotting Christ fan out there. Fan of physical media? This new version features all new cover art.

Considered a cornerstone from Rotting Christ’s Hellenic era, AEALO is a prime example of the band’s mix of black metal and Greek musical traditions. Vocalist and guitarist Sakis Tolis had the following to say when the re-recorded version was announced:

“Dear friends, we have re-recorded, remixed and remastered our 11th album AEALO with deep respect for the original recording. We are proud to present to you the first sample from the album with a new video for its title track.”

The re-recorded version of AEALO comes out January 23, 2026 on Season of Mist, but you can preorder and pre-save your copy today.
