Saudi Arabia's AlNamrood have returned with a new recording which continues their mixture of black metal and oriental music from their previous releases and this is a review of their 2022 album "Worship The Degenerate" which will be released in April by Shaytan Productions.
Tribal style drumming and oriental folk instruments start off the album which also mixes in with the heavier sections of the songs at times. When the music speeds up a decent amount of blast beats can also be heard while the vocals are mostly grim yet high pitched sounding black metal screams.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while the tremolo picking also gives the songs more of a raw feeling when they are utilized. A small amount of melody can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing at times along with one track also introducing death metal growls onto the recording and as the album progresses a brief use of melodic chants can also be heard as well as an instrumental also being added towards the end
On this album AlNamrood remain true to the mixture of black metal and oriental folk music that they have established on previous releases. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Ancient History, Evil, Darkness and Anti Religion themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from AlNamrood and if you are a fan of black metal with touches of oriental folk music, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Protector Of The Herd" and "Free Will". 8 out of 10.
