Rotting Christ have released the video below for their song “Saoirse“, which is from the band’s upcoming fourteenth studio album Pro Xristou, which is set to release on May 24th.
A press release offered the following on the inspiration for the song:
”Saoirse‘ pays tribute to the Irish King of Tara, who was one of the last kings to resist the expansion of Christianity. In Gaelic, ‘Saoirse’ means ‘freedom’. The song invokes this long-heard ancient battle cry from the very beginning, opening with a distant clang of swords. “I am the wind that blows across the sea”, Sakis warns as a riff comes charging in behind him like a tidal wave.’
The band is currently out on tour with Uada & Abigail Williams:
03/31 Regina, SK – The Exchange
04/01 Winnipeg, MB – Park Theater
