Anaal Nathrakh have been hard at work on a new album for some time now. This is intended to serve as a follow up to 2016’s “The Whole of the Law”. They’ve been at it for 20 years consistently putting out quality content so it should be interesting to see where they go next.
On that note, Anaal Nathrakh have just announced their new album with the intention of pushing the boundaries behind symphonic black metal, death metal, industrial and grindcore. It will be known as “A New Kind Of Horror” and comes strapped with a September 28th release date via Metal Blade Records.
The album was recorded earlier this year and features ten tracks that push the boundaries of "symphonic black metal, death metal, industrial and grindcore."
When writing about A New Kind Of Horror in the record’s liner notes, Anaal Nathrakh vocalist Dave Hunt is succinct in his description: “This is not a happy album, it is bitter, vengeful, sarcastic, sardonic, violent, terrified and horrified, terrifying and horrifying in equal measure. Above all, it is human, and all that that entails. It’s as sincere as we could make it. There’s a lot that goes into our albums, of course, but it all comes about as a natural result of who we are, and for ‘A New Kind Of Horror‘ we felt early on that it was clearly its own thing. It doesn’t have to stand in comparison with anything, because to us it’s in a class of its own.”
