bmurator French Death / Black Metal. This is extraordinarily powerful! I think both Ippocalyptica & David Fischer & Metallurgical Fire are spot on. I Have never heard such intensity & such out-of-this-world drumming! The song writing is complex & with many layers that demand multiple listens to appreciate fully. Definitely going onto my AOTY list! This album is a must-have if you are into BM / DM of any kind! Highly recommended!!! Favorite track: Swords of Dajjal.
Ippocalyptica

Ippocalyptica Four years ago, I wrote the sixth and evidently final review on Necrowretch’s The Ones From Hell. As happenstance has it, I am writing the sixth review for the superior Swords of Dajjal, and I really hope I am not the final word again. This deserves more attention. This is blackened DM of immense quality, with bone-shattering drums, flesh-rending riffs, cardiac arrest-inducing tempos, and face-breaking intensity. The cherry on top? The subtle menace that is present from start to finish. Satan!
David Fischer

David Fischer Here's to you not having the last words again, Ippo! Necrowretch instantly got me with the cover artwork, and yet their blend of black and death metal is so much more malicious than I hoped it would be. The first few seconds of Dii Mauri alone will likely summon demons any time the song is played somewhere! The war drums at the end of Total Obliteration herald the end of existence as we know it. Swords of Dajjal definitely deserve much more attention, so give them yours. Satan indeed! Favorite track: Swords of Dajjal.

There is a land of disbelief A land of which thou must not speak Where the hand of god could not uphold The dark omen from down below As there stood a tree That grew from the bottom of Hell Ksar Al-Kufar There is a dream of lechery A dream which thou art not to seek Where the realm of god met its demise And forever will grow our Might Join us! The Zaqqum bestowed us With calamity and torment Deemed accursed We are the Temple of Lust The Zaqqum has granted us Unto a fiery doom Deemed accursed We are the Jebel of Perdition Ksar Al-Kufar The Dregs of Evil

In the name of Satan The Absolutely Unpure Who whispers into the hearts of human race There is no god but Satan And "we, his Prophets" Shall you join a Kingdom of Sins and Lust? Azrail! Ô Striking Disaster! Israfil! The Devil always wins In the name of Satan The Bestower of Hate Who guides all the inmates of the doom There is no god but Satan That is worthy of worship Shall you pass the door of Dark Knowledge? Azrail! Ô Declining Days! Israfil! The Devil Lies in the East Come seek power by the Lord of Hell's Fire And by His side we shall never die Come seek fortune by the Lord of Hell's fire And by His side we shall never die

Dii Mauri 05:06
Ave! Ingirozoglezim! Who rise and rose through Aenon's seed Glory! Let thy reign begin! With the mysteries behind thy deeds Dii Mauri Idols – from the Netherworld Seven gods in standing stone Supreme! Let Thy Kingdom soar! Thus the burning sand shall turn to gold Divine dedications Dedications of ember Embers coated in Blood So shall it be to scribe Thy Names Offerings and sacrifice Sacrifice to the thunder Thundering sorcery So shall it be to cast Thy Flames
4.
The stars are dying Upon the ruins Of ancient Ghadames Distortion of time Frequent, sudden And unexpected deaths When the hearts of men Are poisoned by Sins And lust for the Devils Rise of idols Beast of the Earth Swords of Dajjal And the Black Legions Will come from the East To rape and raze the world A massacre, a feast The Covenant of Death In a darkened pyre The end of all days In forty nights of Fire

Wisdom – Lies below The great Imedĵasen Carvings in ancient stone Coated in gold and lead Decades upon decades I sang dedications Unto highest thoughts And to the bitter end Distress Sorrow Torment Numidian Knowledge Hear me! Glorious King Beyond Thy grave of gold Tell me truly my lord The oath that shall be sworn Awake! Ye Awake I pledge Thee my pitiful life For I shall be a slave Until the day I die

Vae Victis 04:18
The city of god is set afire And the weakest flock weeps in grief The ruthless man, the survivor Glory in violence made him king Woe to the vanquished Torment and disgrace Banishing of souls Slaughter beatifed Women sold as slaves Gathering to die The day won't dawn on those sentenced And only ashes will carry their names The lawless men, the compeller A bestower of life and Death Vae Victis To the vanquished, woe! To the Victor, gold! To the vanquished, woe! Mars Triumphans

I'll be born with horns and cloven hooves A dreadful spawn in a scorching pyre I'll be the bastard son of serpents and dogs A prophet of doom, pain and ire Prophecy Oblivion Deviancy Armageddon I'll be the death which will kill the world A nightmarish fate of wrath and greed I'll be the beast which will speaks in tongues A prophet of doom, scorn and grief I shall speak no more The reckoning draws near For when your time comes You shall see and hear “Une dernière prophétie – Qui scellera votre sort Arrête ! C'est ici... l'Empire de la Mort"

about

There's black metal, there's death metal. Then you have NECROWRETCH, a band which combines the best of both worlds into music made straight from the depths of hell.
The band may be coming from France, their debut ‘Putrid Death Sorcery’ spawned right out of the inferno. So far, they've released two classic blackened death albums on Season of Mist; ‘Satanic Slavery’ and ‘The Ones From Hell’.
Now, NECROWRETCH are back with ‘Swords of Dajjal’, an album that is quite literally the manifestation of the antichrist. There are no messiahs, only NECROWRETCH who, with this brutal portrayal, breaks open the gates of heaven, ripping out its chains – that's going to be a pricy expense for the Lord!
Expect brutal blast beats, maximum riffage and deafening bass tones.
