A.k.a. Δημήτρης Πατσουρής Jim Patsouris
Greek artist [Bass, Backing vocals, Songwriter], founding member of Varathron and Rotting Christ. Ex-owner of Metal Era record store in Athens, Greece and contributor to Heavy Metal Cosmos webzine. He was an integral part of Rotting Christ from 1988 - 1996, appearing on all the band's demos as well as 'Passage To Arcturo' and the first three full-length albums, playing bass and writing all lyrics for the band during that time. Though he handled a large number of interviews while he was in the band, he has been almost silent on the subject of Rotting Christ since he left. For the 'Non Serviam' book he broke this silence and talks at length about the band's early days and his misspent youth playing music and clashing with police along with the Tolis brothers, having been friends with the pair since they were schoolboys. Jim was key in the band's early activities and also was instrumental in setting up the legendary yet short-lived Storm Studio, as well as the Metal Era store. He also contributed to Varathron as a bassist.
