ROTTING CHRIST - In Yumen / Xibalba (Lyrics Video)

[@MrNudy8]

Xibalba translated as "place of fear" is the name of the underworld in K'iche' Maya mythology, ruled by the Maya death gods and their helpers. Well,through this album sakis wanted to make us learn and search,I think he did it! I think that the most of you wondered "What is Xibalba" and a few of you googled it And thats 1 more reason of their success and thats why they are ammong the best black metal bands in europe!

[@alexmarian896]

translated is Place of Fright ?

[@adi19770709]

I disagree… Best band on the word. This song is most best written song!

[@eresiadibase3277]

[@TommyMVMV]

Fuck yes!

[@sepulchureXmcmlxii]

The pride of the Greeks. They have given this world so much knowledge and inspiration ...Rotting Christ continues that Hellenic tradition with their music and ability to craft epic songs from the shadows. Hails from the US.

[@ManillaHeep]

Heard about this band for years. Never checked them out. Seemed too niche. Went to a Marduk concert. Marduk was cancelled. Rotting Christ took over headline duties. Seemed like they played for hours. Amazing to behold. Loved every second. Totally mesmerizing.

[@timothyquinn5520]

I'd heard of them for years but like you, figured they wouldn't be my thing. I couldn't have been more wrong and I wish I got into them sooner. Everything from Thy Mighty Contract to A Dead Poem to this album to The Heretics, their whole discography is magnificent.

[@kotw1432]

@Gareth I listen to Black metal for it's atmosphere, and so far no one is quite as entrancing as Rotting Christ. I haven't listened to their full discography, but I'd even dare to say this album is the most atmospheric one they've made.

[@abigailnatas3399]

Is it me, or are their songs not long enough? Lol I keep them on repeat all day long.

[@fabionovelli3136]

This song has has a particular meaning for me, with the birth of my daughter three years ago. When I listen to this I become something else. This is Black metal

I was also changed by my son being born.. scarier isn't the word.. protective isn't either.

Try Passage to Arcturo, Thy Mighty Contract or Non Serviam, just to name a few from the early 90s, perhaps you have already,if not, I'm sure you'll be hooked up immediately on the early days of RC, these guys have been awesome from their beginnings!!! best Greek metal band ever!

Best RT song. One of the most underrated bands ever. I knew of RT since 1993 when I moved to Greece from Albania. But being too obsessed with Metallica and Maiden, I never gave RT the benefit of the doubt. Probably I was not ready for them. It was my loss. 25 years later I realized what I have been missing. I can't get enough of RT now, trying to make up for lost time. Please come to Canada soon, RT. Hail from Canada!

+PriestlyAxis2 I don't think that he meant that way and bands sounds evolve and change all the time, never expect a band to always sound the same, that's boring

This is a funny comment. I discovered RC with this album and was excited to see they had so many albums under their belt already. Went and listened to all their previous stuff, and nothing sounds like this. So this one and Rituals are actually the only ones I like.

@maria anna αγαπάτε αλλήλους λέει η θρησκεία σου αλλά βλέπω το μίσος στο μήνυμα. Βλέπω ότι τηρείς κατά γράμμα ότι λέει αλλά το μεγαλύτερο παραμύθι είσαι εσύ και οι όμοιοι σου που ακολουθείτε τυφλά τη μεγαλύτερη κατασκευασμένη ιστορία ώστε να γίνετε πρόβατα και να ακολουθείτε ένα ψέμα. Τι εννοώ; Σύμφωνα με τα λεγόμενα της "Αγίας" γραφή σου στην αρχή ήταν οι πρωτόπλαστοι οι οποίοι έκανα δύο αγόρια τον Κάιν και τον Άβελ όπου ο ένας σκότωσε τον άλλο. Τότε πως συνεχίστηκε η ανθρωπότητα; Πήδηξε ο Κάιν την μάνα του; Αιμομιξία; Στην γραφή σας; Και μετά ως δια μαγείας στο επόμενο κεφάλαιο μας πετάει έναν Μωυσή με κάτι φτωχομπινεδες που έφυγαν από την Αίγυπτο. Ότι να ναι δηλαδή. Κατασκευασμένα ψέματα για αυτό σε συμβουλεύω να κόψεις τα ναρκωτικά γιατί έχουν καταστρέψει τον ανύπαρκτο εγκέφαλο σου...

Yucatec Maya, a language spoken in the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. Translated into English, it appears to be a repetition of the phrase: "In the dream of Xibalba Xibalba Here are the lords of the night Xibalba And the lords of the day Xibalba In the dream of Xibalba Xibalba"

In Aztec Mythology we don't have any hell like Xibalba, Death is just transformation for us. We believe in a Sacred Place call Mictlan (The place where the deads go) but it is a nice and warm place to rest in peace and every person goes there.

I spent a couple hours today looking for this song in my playlist because I had a strong craving for it but couldn't remember what it was or who sang it. I've never done that for a song before, especially one added so long ago, 8 years from today (8-8-2024). It came to mind recently when reading a book on ceremonial magic. The chanting part stuck out to me as something that could be a real spell. Wish I knew the words to that part. It really takes the song to a whole other level.

[@Tovenaar13]

I'm not sorry. What is can't be changed. I choose truth over a life of being lied to. I love the part in this song where he says "...to breathe to win your freedom...you are being trialed hard..." Just awesome! The whole song captures all the emotions of divorce IMO.
