8th Album by the UK Black Metal band with BENEDICTION singer Dave Hunt.
Anaal Nathrakh was born with a singular mission: to provide the soundtrack for Armageddon, capturing the essence of evil, hatred, and violence in its most extreme form. Since their inception in 1999, the band has become synonymous with these dark forces, delivering a relentless auditory assault across seven albums and an EP, all met with critical acclaim. Their collaborations with legends like Attila Csihar (Mayhem), Shane Embury and Danny Herrera (Napalm Death), Nick Barker (Testament, Dimmu Borgir), Joe Horvath (Circle of Dead Children), and Sethlans Teitan (Watain) further solidify their position in the extreme metal pantheon.
Anaal Nathrakh’s presence extends beyond the studio. Their first international live performance headlined a stage at Norway’s Inferno Festival, and their impact earned them an invitation to BBC Radio 1, personally requested by the late John Peel. Their work regularly tops 'best album of the year' lists and graces the covers of leading magazines like Terrorizer.
Renowned for their unmatched ferocity, inventiveness, and intelligence, Anaal Nathrakh's music is a visceral experience of fear and menace. Publications across the metal spectrum echo this sentiment: Decibel hails their balance of terror and craft, Metalsucks praises them as "a master class in extreme metal," Pitchfork calls their music "a thrill ride of horrors," while Lastrites declares, "You've been warned. Prostrate or be conquered." Anaal Nathrakh stands as an unstoppable force in the world of extreme metal.
