Rotting Christ To Assault The East Coast

Extreme Greek metallers Rotting Christ have announced a January 2014 Australia tour, which will also see them headline Heavyfest in Sydney and Melbourne.

Forming in the late '80s (the name was really controversial back then), they've blazed a trail that has influenced not only bands to follow, but entire metal sub genres.

With a new – and 11th – studio album Kata to Daimona Eaytoy under their belt, they also have a massive back catalogue to draw upon for the short but sure to be blistering Australian visit.

The shows will be supported by Sydney's The Amenta, who also scored the Cradle Of Filth support earlier this year, and Melbourne's Terra Australis.

The dates are below:
