about

When we recorded this album the first time in 2010, we started the album with this song. We have already decided on the album title and thought it would be cool to start the album with a song which share some words with the album title.

There are a lot of influences thrown into this song. The first riff was influenced by "Rising Force" by, well, RISING FORCE. The next riff where the vocals come in was influenced by NILE's "Black Seeds Of Vengeance". After the repeated phases, the next riff should remind listeners of a song from FUNEBRE, especially when this riff was repeated at the end of the song. The middle part of the song was another attempt at VADER's style of fast scales, which then brings the song into the slow part which sounded really like those rock songs which uses dark riffs or maybe CANDLEMASS? We had to insert a solo here which started slow as a build up to the next fast riff. Hope it works for the listeners. The song returns to the front part and heads towards the end.

In the original version of the album, it began with this song followed by "Kaf-Fa-Ra". "The Dajjal Brings Chaos" is an introduction to the character. "Kaf-Fa-Ra" continues the story. This time round we decided to push this song to the middle. We had wanted to get this album on vinyl. Unfortunately, the total duration of the album which exceeds 44 minutes meant that 1 song had to be excluded. We had wanted this song to end Side A, building up in intensity from "Silkhannas Falls From Grace", to "Kaf-Fa-Ra", to "Yajuj Majuj Versus The World", and end in climax. But that was not meant to be.

The lyrics to this song may sound blasphemous and offensive to those who do not understand. But we imagined what would the Dajjal say to the people, especially those supposed religious ones:

“For I am God, you shall worship me
I am of Jesus, Mohammad within me
Moses and Abraham have spoken of me
Jahannam awaits those who doubted me
I have sent Gabriel to reveal about me
The stars, suns, galaxies revolved around me
Kneel down and submit your faith unto me
For I am above the trinity"

We imagined how the Dajjal would charm mankind. As humans, we are easily fooled by people who appears to have knowledge and the ability to present that knowledge. Covering the theology of the three Abrahamic religions would make the Dajjal sound like an illuminated being and if blasphemy was intended, might as well blaspheme 'em all!

lyrics

THE DAJJAL BRINGS CHAOS

Entombed within thick walls of black steel
Chained and restrained by divine treaty

The dajjal shall bring chaos
To confuse all of mankind
The dajjal shall be victorious
Blasphemy becomes divine

The promised day finally arrived
The black messiah reveals blasphemy

The dajjal shall bring chaos
To confuse all of mankind
The dajjal shall be victorious
Blasphemy becomes divine

He spews blasphemy
Coerces idolatry
Pagan and infamy
Defiling humanity

“For I am God, you shall worship me
I am of Jesus, Mohammad within me
Moses and Abraham have spoken of me
Jahannam awaits those who doubted me

I have sent Gabriel to reveal about me
The stars, suns, galaxies revolved around me
Kneel down and submit your faith unto me
For I am above the trinity"

Mesmerized by his words of poetic blasphemy
Mankind is led unto chaos … destruction

He sees with one-eyed vision
He controls the constellations
He erodes divination
He brings chaos and destruction

The dajjal revels in dark victory
Thus begins the age of debauchery

The dajjal shall bring chaos
To confuse all of mankind
The dajjal shall be victorious
Blasphemy becomes divine

He spews blasphemy
Coerces idolatry
Pagan and infamy
Defiling humanity
