Review from Brutally Delicious

According to The Metal Archives, Dødsferd has been in existence since 2001. I’m well versed in black metal, but I’m embarrassed to admit that even being a half Greek, currently living in Athens, Greece, I have never heard of this band until their most recent release “Wrath,” was sent my way.  Without doing any prior research on Dødsferd, I dove right in and immediately thought they have a classic, Scandinavian black me...

Review from Metal Temple

DØDSFERD is synonymous with Wrath, the founder, vocalist, and guitarist for said band. On May 10, 2024, the band released their twelfth studio full-length album, “Wrath,” onHypnotic Dirge Records in collaboration with Fuck Your Creation Records. While the verdict is still out as to whether this technically qualifies as an eponymous album (an album named after the band that issued it), there is no question as to the reputation that D...

Since 2001, Wrath, the man behind the Greek Dødsferd, has been spitting and vomiting on everything and everyone. There are few who escape his curse and wrath. We certainly don’t. The Portuguese Hypnotic Dirge Records releases album number twelve of this motley crew in various attractive formats. The title, ah yes, no need to complicate things, it’s simply Wrath. The last time we heard from this gentleman was quite a while ago. It was ...

Dødsferd is an act that is immediately recognizable in the underground. Their output is staggering with eleven full-length releases and countless splits, collaborations, and EPS since the Greek’s inception in 2006. The duo of Wrath and Neptunus return with their twelfth full-length offering to the black metal hordes. Wrath is an album that celebrates everything darkness eschewing the experimental notions, and depressive leanings of recent...

I didn’t really get into black metal until I started writing for AMG. This was primarily caused by a misconception of what these genres entailed, a sort of genre discrimination based in ignorance (isn’t that always the root cause?). In the case of black metal, I thought the definition of the style equated to lo-fi second wave black metal, or the sonic equivalent of hoovering up a marble with a cyclone vacuum. I still avoid that part...

Review from Heavy Music HQ

From: Heavy Music HQ
Published: May 9, 2024

For over two decades, Greek black metal band Dødsferd have meticulously crafted a potent blend of cold, misanthropic, dark, and hateful music, all the while infusing it with a haunting melodic undertone. Their twelfth studio album Wrath is a testament to this, a sonic journey that plunges listeners into the depths of decadent human life.

Wrath, as its name suggests, is a testament to rebellion and defiance. It echoes the call for lost and...

If there is one guarantee about Dødsferd it is the fact that whatever they release, it will be hellishly dark and horribly twisted. A fact that is once again confirmed by the blackened intensity of Wrath. An apt title as it finds Dødsferd as furiously fast and as heavy as they were on their earliest releases.

Beginning with the hysteria of Restoration of Justice. The egregious scream of suffering that greets will tell you all you need to know abo...

When I first heard music by Dødsferd, I was instantly gripped. The way that the music and lyrics related and sounded so good was something I hadn’t experienced before and rarely since.

Dødsferd released Diseased Remnants of a Dying World in 2018 and I had the honour of reviewing that. This was when I was first exposed to such brilliance and since then I have been lucky enough to cover the subsequent releases. However, when you ar...

Review from Invisible Oranges

Dødsferd are extremely pissed off on their 12th studio album. Not that that’s new, but consistency is always appreciated. Wrath is misanthropic, single-minded black metal that’s hard to make intriguing after a few go-arounds, yet Dødsferd’s main member Wrath still hates people just as much now as he did in 2001. Resultingly, Wrath is that rare breed of myopic yet captivating black metal.

Named after Dødsferd's founder, the 12th record from Greek black metal institution sees them heading back to their roots with abrasive, glacial, furious black metal. Never attempting to be pigeonholed, the band have released atmospheric albums, acoustic albums but with raw, visceral black metal that Wrath has made their mark on the revered Hellenic metal scene.

Wrath then paves the way for the next part of their existence, inspired by...

Ah, the devilish beauty of pure evil in the form of Metal music. The wonders of the raw rage delivered by a multifaceted band as Dødsferd, a band whose career is so initiated in the black arts. A band we had the honor and pleasure to check out how versatile it can be with experimental albums as “Asphyxiating Late Night Sessions” or “Suicide and the Rest of Your Kind Will Follow II.” Or as one of the most important milestones of th...

Dødsferd are an Underground force, a super active band who without getting the publicity they deserve (probably they don’t even care about it) generously offer top quality music and countless releases. Active since 2003, they have managed in 21 years to release 12 full length albums (!!!) with the last one entitled “Wrath”.

What makes ‘Wrath’ better than the band’s previous efforts? Actually nothing, because quite simply the ba...

We’ll begin with the first two songs you can now hear from Wrath, the forthcoming 12th album by Dødsferd. The album’s title shares the name of the band’s founder and also describes the emotional energy that fuels much of the music.

“Restoration of Justice” opens the album in a blaze — layered guitars deliriously whirling, the bass thundering, the vocals scalding, and the drums delivering a furious barrage. It’s like being ...

Named after the band’s founder, thematically, Wrath “carries in its wake a vigorous indictment of the social and economic consequences of capitalism, political corruption, ecocide, and the largest argument against our civility, warfare.” 

It’s also a crushingly good chunk of Black Metal.

For this release, Wrath is joined by N.D. of Greek Black Metal band Sørgelig as guest drummer, who also played on Suicide and the Rest of Your Kind Wi...

Hailing from Greece, today we have the sinister Dødsferd and their latest opus “Wrath”. Featuring ten tracks and nearly one hour of crushing Black Metal, this band shows the listener no mercy with their high-octane tracks and fierce sound. Highly recommended for purists of the genre, this album packs a lot of punch and shows that the band means business.

Waiting no time to establish a pummeling atmosphere, “Restorat...

 Given all that has been accomplished within the vast reaches of black metal in the decades since its inception, it has become exceedingly obvious that there are still more than a few old bastions of that classic vein that are able to deliver the goods on such a level that leaves the mind utterly bewildered. There’s a solid list of names that we can sift through when it comes to reliability, consistency, and quality when it comes...
