The first thing you will notice about Anaal Nathrakh's new album Eschaton is that it returns to the brutal pace of The Codex Necro while further developing the unique songwriting of Domine Non Es Dignus. What could have been the best black metal album ever written really winds up being a good grindcore album with black metal influences. Its clear where the band is going as many segments of 'Eschaton' sound suspiciously similar to Napalm Death's album'Smear Campaign which is not surprising, considering members of Napalm helped to record Eschaton and also have played live sessions with Anaal Nathrakh.
