    It takes quite a bit of talent to construct such uncompromising music and keep things memorable, especially music with such misanthropic and lightless lyrical subject matter. With Vanitas, Anaal Nathrakh has accomplished everything they have set out to do.

    They seem have found a sense of clarity amid the chaos at certain points.

    There is a catchiness to the song structures that occasionally brushes against an industrial influence.

    As a stylistic culmination of sorts, Vanitas is a fine place to start.
