Anaal Nathrakh (pronounced, surprisingly, almost exactly how it looks [An-Al Nat-Rakh], which translates to "serpent's breath") are a widely acclaimed extreme metal duo from Birmingham, England. The members are multi-instrumentalist Mick Kenney (AKA Irrumator), who performs all instruments in studio, and vocalist Dave Hunt (AKA V.I.T.R.I.O.L), who performs, well, the vocals. The duo came together in 1999, at a time when black metal was still relatively alive in the underground. After recording two demos, one self-titled and another called Total Fucking Necro, in 2001 they released their debut album The Codex Necro, which featured a chaotic, raw black metal sound. The album received near-unanimous positive reviews, earning numerous "Album of the Month" awards, and is to this day considered one of the best black metal releases of the 2000s.Their next two releases, Domine Non Es Dignus and Eschaton, in 2004 and 2006, respectively, continued along the same path as their debut, receiving similar praise from metal publications. Then, with 2007's Hell Is Empty and All the Devils Are Here, they took their already brutalizing sound and make it even more brutal by incorporating elements of Death Metal, Grindcore, and Industrial into their sound. This album is considered to be the band's breakthrough release, receiving acclaim from critics and a spot on Metal Storm's "Top 100 Black Metal Albums of All Time" list. Their next four albums have since followed in the same extreme fusion style, and to this day the group is going strong.Despite their acclaim, Anaal Nathrakh are definitely not a band for everyone. Their music is noisy and intense even by extreme metal standards, to the level many metalheads consider them to be one of the heaviest bands ever. Despite this, they incorporate a very surprising amount of melodic elements into much of their music. Make of that what you will.Dave Hunt was also the vocalist for the Death Metal band Benediction from 1998 until 2019, while Mick Kenney also works as record producer and co-runs the record label FETO Records along with Napalm Death bassist Shane Embury. Kenney also has a solo project named Kordhell, with which he produces horrorcore-inspired phonk.

Protest Song
 Anaal Nathrakh (Music) / int_16d8476f
comment
Protest Song: "The Joystream" could be one against corrupt aid organizations, since its chorus appears to reference this blog post by Dave where he discusses the effectiveness of the traditional charity system and how society can do better by being more proactive. Endarkenment is an album full of them, with a lyrical focus based around the increasing disdain for and rejection of reason and objective fact throughout the world (particularly the US and UK) and the subsequent embrace of demagoguery and slide into autocracy. While it is unknown exactly why they chose to publish their lyrics for the first time ever on this album, the nature of them coupled with the state of the world is as good a guess as any.

Literary Allusion Title: Hell is Empty and all the Devils are Here, "The Yellow King", "Lama Sabachthani", "Timewave Zero"...they're big fans of these. Helps that Dave has a background in literature. The chorus for "More Of Fire Than Blood" is a line directly quoted from The Prophecies of Nostradamus. Similarly, the chorus of "When the Dragon Devours Both Lion and Child" paraphrases the Madman's Parable by Friedrich Nietzsche.

Miniscule Rocking: Passion has three songs under 2 minutes: "Post traumatic Stress Euphoria" (1:41), "Locus of Damnation" (1:01) and "Portrait of the Artist" (1:20)note Which is more of an outro track than a "real" song. The intro tracks mentioned above, with the exception of "Acheronta Movebimus", also qualify.

Gratuitous German: "Tod Huetet Uebel" note Notably one of only three songs to have its lyrics officially published by Anaal Nathrakh, since it was co-written with another artist and probably because this trope + Indecipherable Lyrics = insanity. Downplayed by "Der Hölle Rache Kocht in Meinem Herzen", which is a reference to Mozart's The Magic Flute opera aria of the same name but not actually sung in German.

Downer Ending: Since at least Hell is Empty... the group has made a habit of making the last song be the most abrasivenote "Castigation & Betrayal", "Blood Eagles Carved on The Backs of Innoncents", "Ita Mori", nightmarishnote "Portrait of the Artist", "Of Horror and the Black Shawls", or melancholicnote "A Metaphor for the Dead", "Are We Fit for Glory Yet?", "Requiem" on a given album. This is not by coincidence, given their lyrical focus.

Early-Installment Weirdness: While it firmly established Anaal Nathrakh's reputation as a fearsome band and laid the foundation for their signature sound, The Codex Necro is a raw, chaotic, and aggressive but otherwise largely straightforward Black Metal album with no clean vocals or the experimentation with other extreme genres the band would become known for starting with Domine Non Es Dignus. The When Fire Rains Down from the Sky... EP marks the beginning of the transition between the two sounds.

Viewers Are Geniuses: The band never publish their lyrics, except for two individual instances with the songs "Tod Huetet Uebel" and "Forward!" before they broke this tradition with Endarkenment. This leaves the fans to pick apart the lyrics themselves, the almost constant Indecipherable Lyrics taken up to eleven be damned. For example, someone transcribed "Forging Towards The Sunset" and got this. Pretty impressive!

Indecipherable Lyrics: Fucking, yes, holy, fucking, shit. Thanks to the large amount of feedback, industrial sounds, harsh samples, and grinding guitars, the typically difficult to understand growls and screams of the genre are made all the harder to decipher. Recordings of live shows make them a lot easier to understand, however, and Dave Hunt's vocals have become somewhat more clear over the years.

Lighter and Softer: Desideratum is arguably this to the rest of their discography thanks to its greater Electronic Music influence and more melodic songwriting. This is a relative case, however, as it's still pretty damn hard in its own right. Downplayed by Endarkenment, which dials back the brutality a tad and strips away most of the Industrial Metal influence for a sound that while perhaps more accessible, sounds just as angry and hopeless as anything in their backlog.

War Is Hell: This seems to be the main theme of A New Kind of Horror.

comment
Soprano and Gravel: Though unlike most other examples, the clean vocals are generally anything but melodic. Despite this, Dave's clean vocals can go into a particularly operatic soaring sound, like here on "When The Lion Devours Both Dragon And Child".

Harsh Vocals: What isn't a throat-rending shriek or an operatic Metal Scream is a deep, guttural growl or snarl.

Scary Musician, Harmless Music: Inverted. Dave and Mick don't look threatening at all◊, but they make some of the harshest music known to man.
