Anaal Nathrakh: Passion

I'm a close follower of Anaal Nathrakh in the hope that the duo would unleash upon the world another genius black metal release akin to The Codex Necro but since Domine Non Es Dignus, they have not manifested their former selves. Anaal Nathrakh is currently a pregnable grindcore outfit with occasional vocal wailing which would have made Rob Halford proud. The content offered in Passion perpetuates the music's brutality but the standard was set in 2007; the Anaal Nathrakh's grindcore brand was most comprehensive in Hell is Empty... Is Passion up to the mark, then? It's 100% Anaal Nathrakh, alright but on issues pertaining to coherence & downright appeal, Passion could have been better. A very forceful release, nevertheless.

question... if the music is too brutal and fast, can we 'feel' or 'hear' the guitar-tone?

answer: if you embrace any music genre, it's yours to feel.
