Wow another kickass album of 2024 !
The mix of black and death brings a nice aggressiveness without being suffocating.
And the oriental influence adds a unique spice to the mix
An album I will listen multiple times for sure
Favorite track: Ksar Al-Kufar.
Swords of Dajjal

The cover art is just a prelude to the middle eastern terror that this album brings.

Swords of Dajjal is mostly fast paced and highly energetic black/death metal. Great riffs, memorable and diverse songs and breathtaking blast beats crowned by some evil vocals. If they improve from this release to the next as they did from the previous to this the next one surely will be on many AOTY lists. Necrowretch are on a very promising way.
Favorite track: Dii Mauri.

Ksar Al-Kufar

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

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

Swords of Dajjal
04:55
|

|
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

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.
