When Fire Rains Down From the Sky, Mankind Will Reap as It Has Sown

Anaal Nathrakh

Mordgrimm

Anaal Nathrakh really is every bit as good as the metal-rag hype: ultra-fast, ultra-buzzsaw British black metal. The duo doesn’t seem to be going for standard-issue grimness so much as economic, pistol-crack punk impact. Plus, these guys look hilarious: total average Joes—no long locks or corpse paint.—Brent Burton
