Album: Hell is Empty and All the Devils Are Here
Hell Is Empty and All The Devils Are Here is the fourth album by British post-black metal band Anaal Nathrakh, released on October 29th through Feto Records.
Musically, the album continues in the direction of previous album Eschaton.
The music is still intense, featuring fast drum machine blastbeats and V.I.T.R.I.O.L.'s harsh vocals.
Trivia
The album title is a quote from the first act of William Shakespeare's The Tempest
Solifugae, which is latin for those that flee from the sun, is an order of arachnids.
The title of the second track is German for "The Vengeance of Hell is Seething in My Heart." This is the official title of the "Queen of the Night's Aria" in Mozart's The Magic Flute.
"Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?" were among the last words uttered by Jesus Christ as he died on the cross, meaning "my God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"
