Candlelight Records will be releasing Anaal Nathrakh’s new album on October 15. Its name is Vanitas. Earlier in September, Candlelight released a teaser clip of samples from the album (which we featured here). A few hours ago a single from the album appeared on the UK version of iTunes. Its name is “Of Fire and Fucking Pigs”, which is an evocative song title if there ever was one.
There was no fanfare about the release of this single, as far as I can tell. No advance announcement. No press release. And no official song stream of the song. I found out about it through posts on the Facebook pages of Candlelight and the band. I presume there will be a press blast later this morning.
Unfortunately, for now the song can only be downloaded by denizens of the UK — and those denizens can go here to do that. However, the interhole being the interhole, someone has procured the track and uploaded it to YouTube. This may not last long, so you might want to catch it quick — after the jump. By the way, the song is stupendous.
UPDATE! AN also just announced a Canadian tour — details after the jump.
The song: Dave Hunt’s vocals are as riveting as ever, like the emanations of a man being burned to death while in the throes of a demonic possession. The guitar assault and the drum attack are ferocious. But there’s an almost symphonic quality to the melody as it threads its way through the maelstrom. Fascinating music. Check it out while you can:
The tour:

THE DARKNESS WITHIN THE DEPTHS OF THE PIT OF SHIT-HELL, WHEREIN ALL THE EVIL SHITS WHO DID THEIR EVIL SHIT AND SHITTED EVILLY, HAS BURST FORTH FROM ITS PREGNANCY RESULTING FROM ITS INSEMINATION WITH THE HORRIBLE PIG CUM OF THE PIG-SHIT-DEMONS, AND IT NOW LETS LOOSE THE SPECTERS OF ALL THE SHIT-PIGLET-DEMONS WHO DIED IN VITRO WHEN FEASTED UPON BY THEIR WOMBMATES, AND NOW THEY FLOAT ABOVE US JERKING OFF AND CUMMING MOUNDS OF GELATINOUS SHIT-SEMEN LIKE A BACKED-UP SEWER OF SANTORUM.
Welp, no further need for us to review this album. U haz done it.
No. That was only my review of this song. I WANNA REVIEW THE WHOLE DAMN ALBUM!!!
I might could arrange that if you will send me a brace of pig-shit-demons who died in vitro.
Errr…I dunno if I have a brace of ’em…how about a nutsack full?
A Santorum nutsack?
Ew.
How about a bull’s nutsack.
I’ll think about that, but I was really hoping you had Santorum’s.
Of all the scrotums in the world, that’d be the last one I’d touch.
Unless it was with some serious robotics or some shit.
Maybe a few hundred gallons of bleach.
If I have sex with a dude some time in the next few days, I’d be happy to send you both some of the resulting santorum.
I’m in a generous mood. Please send my portion to Phro.
Yeah! Be sure to put it in an airtight container. Don’t want customs to take it.
Its a promising track, the last third of it goes all weird which is quite disengaging for myself, but the song on a whole is good, and by God does Dave Hunts vocals actually sound like he is being dragged through hell and back again! I just wish one day Anaal Nathrakh will drop this melodramatic development that has been occuring album after album and jump back into the Codex Necro style, as much as I like their entire discography I just loved the unforgiving punishment The Codex Necro vomited, no niceties just pure hell.
By a remarkable coincidence, I just recently decided to check out Anaal Nathrakh’s music (don’t know why I hadn’t done so before, probably due to some sort of hex being placed on me), and it’s been boring holes in my head in the best way, so this song and album are well timed.
I SAW.
Pretty good song. Also, the title on my Facebook wall got cut off, so it said “Of Fire and Fucking Pi”. Ha.
3.14 x 69 = Fucking Pi
