NECROWRETCH announce their new album, ‘Swords of Dajjal’, which is named after the Islamic Antichrist. Today, the blackened French band release “Dii Mauri”, the album’s third single. The album ‘Swords of Dajjal’ comes out February 2, 2024 and will be out on Season Of Mist. 

Watch “Dii Mauri” below.

“Dii Mauri” begins with a blessing and a curse. “Ave Ingirozoglezim!” singer Vlad spews, as if conjuring the fully eruptive force of his band. Drum fills reign down like boulders, while the riffs churn and whip with the blinding fury of a sandstorm. Even in the midst of a lone, piercing guitar that drifts through the air like a mirage, one thing is clear. In their wake, NECROWRETCH leave nothing but devastation.This song pays tribute to the ancient Moorish Gods in Dii Mauri“, says NECROWRETCH. “Unlike the other Gods that the Roman Empire was integrating into their pantheon after each conquest, the Dii Mauri were considered too barbaric to be ever integrated.So shall it be… to scribe thy namesSo shall it be… to cast thy flames…”The video for “Dii Mauri” was filmed on location in Spain and Kyrgyzstan. It was directed, filmed and edited by Mounir Chraibi. Horse training was provided by Carolina Lindenau from Spain’s Rancho Bonanza.
