In '97 I was just a kid, but I can confirm, the 90s and early 2000s were pure magical years. First time I listened to this album was around 2005, I think. I hope you be able to listen to this when you were in your 80s! Luck!

Not one filler in this album. Riffs, melodies, lyrics, solos and the best Sakis vocals. Dark melancholy at its best.
This is among the most underrated metal albums in existence. Non Serviam and Triarchy from this masterful band always get plenty of praise, and their newer works helped bring them to a wider audience... but this gem is true musical perfection. The unique blend of hard rock esque riffs with a darker edge added to them, all with Sakis' awesome vocals on top. Simple perfection.

I remember when they released. The black and death metal fans became frustrated with the band while other subgenres of metal fans didn't care because they didn't care care for black and death metal. My favorite type of metal was thrash but I'd listen to everything people showed to see if I liked anything else and this album trully caught my attention. Maybe it was the last "new" thing I liked in metal overall. Trully underrated album, very creative and ignored probably because of the reason I said in the first paragraph.

I disagree. IMO the best era includes everything from Triarchy of the Lost Lovers up to Sanctus Diavolos. Dead Poem is generally great, but lacks that one song that rocks my socks off - Among Two Storms is the closest but it's second track, and after that album became softer and softer. Triarchy of the Lost Lovers is a little like a Dead Poem - slightly worse, but generally good. Sleep of the Angels feels just too soft and monotonous - but has something that Dead Poem and Triarchy lasts - THAT one song, wchich also happens to be the last one - Thine is the Kingdom saves this album from being entirely forgettable. Khronos is a step back to Black Metal roots which is IMO a step in good direction, but we're not here yet, few songs are great tho. Finally Genesis and Sanctus Diavolos are the albums that has everything - melody, solos, lyrics, kickass songs (with Doctrine which feels like it's every RC song mashed into one), and great summarizing songs: Under the Name of Legion and Sanctus Diavolos.

A Dead Poem and Sleep of the Angels are true gems from another world.
This was the 1st Rotting Christ album I ever bought & it was the first I'd ever heard them. I grew up with Venom & Bathory pounding my ears but the 2nd wave did nothing for me. That was until I bought A Dead Poem. Sure it's got more melody than any BM album has any right to have ( joking folks 😉 ), but that's what grabbed me & opened my ears up for the countless great BM acts I was to soon devour. If I was to pigeonhole this album, it would be Blackened Doom Metal. Thankfully ROTTING CHRIST aren't a band you can pigeonhole too easily. No disrespect to their peers, but in my opinion ROTTING CHRIST are by far the greatest Metal band to come from the ancient shores of Greece 🤘
Это лучший их альбом. Всем добра и мира

This was the album that got me listening to Rotting Christ. It hasn't lost any of its appeal.
LYRICS Sorrowfull Farewell: Counting the time Waiting for the crime The loss of innocence A faint reminiscence I'm in the twilight Surrounded by the night The memories have been disgraced The scene is still unchanged The time is near The message is clear The battle will be fought Fight now fear not I keep still I am trying to feel The hate that's within you I'm going to win you I was mistaken I was forgotten Unbroken silence Absolute violence I praise the song of defeat I am the bottom and he's the summit A sorrowfull farewell Where does salvation dwell? Among two Storms: Full moon - raise the rainbow The sea experts -prepare the bow An optical miracle -a moon as high as one Two hundreds High strain Threaten the mankind Among two storms It buzzes around your ears An easy day will follow the twilight It must be the last full moon It's near the promised time The thunder bears two mothers The mother bears two sons Echoes in the distance All turn to sun's size It's hot although it's midnight The mothers died at once Father itself the rainbow Both sons will last no more... A Dead Poem: Focus tomorrow's horizon Sorrow means no future Cover my face With my guilty hands It's the season the trees die The birds don't sing anymore The rivers never come back Nature dies out This tragic future destined to hurt never heal What end can save me What good gives me an end Nothing is innocent Nothing is fair I keep wondering How did I end up like this First passion Now is lost A dramatic dead story I killed all I have My sadness is Translated into madness I spell meaningless words A poem for sorrow and death... Out of Spirits: Great dilemma Detestable thoughts Non-existing facts Ans it's the grief that accompanies you Life and death are struggling The outcome is wavering The decision is ours But the truth escapes me The sadness of bereavement The loss of innocence Hate made an untrodden path Of my soul I walk lightly Trying not to wake My sleeping consciousness Trying to resist myself The fate has schemed Against us The weak are condemned Fear now I want to be alive But my soul is asleep You can say whatever I go on all alone Ira Incensus: Let the silence talk Let my life walk The path of despair Confess your sins if you dare I play with fear Guilt is coming near Challenge me But don't judge me The tree of my pride Has grown up so wild I'm the one who endures Ira incensus All efforts in vain My life is pain I'm reaching the truth And death is the proof The last of my kind I'm losing my mind The pain has gone But I'm alone I fight on my way The skills I have shown Abandon, desert me The secret is going to break me... I cry for me Despair is all I see The night is spreading My life is ending...

I've always loved the cover of this album. But it's funny because in the biography I'm reading now, it talks about how the cover was kind of a hack job done by the label using Photoshop and wasn't really designed by the band themselves. Still, despite that, I've always loved the cover. Especially the pages in the booklet with that brass/bronze color motif.

I feel so ashamed to have discovered RC 2 years ago only. But now I can't stop to listen to them. Hope to see them again soon on stage.
This was my first album of Rotting Christ (what a guitar work!!!). This album and his direct brother "Sleep of the Angels" are true gems. In their last works, they are more focused on the atmospheres and the arrangements and they have forgotten that they were true cracks in the handling of their guitars. A real shame, but (and this is in case they're reading me) it's never too late to get back to the way. Long live Rotting Christ, one of my most aprecciated bands. OSMÜGA
