It's refreshing to see that you're covering a different style than Deathcore. Anaal Nathrakh are one of those weird and strange extreme metal acts that are very talented and good at their craft.

6:50 was exactly how I reacted the first time I listened to Anaal Nathrakh

[@richardsinclair7661]

There's no crime in stating Anaal Nathrakh has industrial influences, because they wear them on their sleeves practically. Great breakdown. You reminded me that I gotta listen to more of this band. Also, so it seems you're a WoW player as well?

[@corielldoghc]

Richard Sinclair to be fair. The influences only really began showing up 2-3 albums ago, if he listened to say...their first album/Ep it’s a different beast entirely

[@richardsinclair7661]

@@corielldoghc Fair enough. I'm only familiar with The Whole of Law and A New Kind of Horror. I didn't know the industrial influences were relatively new. Sounds like I should visit their back-catalog

[@corielldoghc]

Richard Sinclair all of their music is amazing. Their earlier stuff is a lot closer to grindcore and black metal, I’d highly recommend it

[@KardavoxAcademy]

I love the industrial element. As for WoW I played again for a few months when they released Classic and it was a blast leveling an affliction warlock again, but I don't have the time to really devote to it unfortunately.

[@richardsinclair7661]

@@KardavoxAcademy I was hit-or-miss with the industrial elements at first, but now that my music tastes have diversified, I love the layered sound that AN has. It's pretty distinct, and that's something hard to attain in metal. And I see. It's the same here. Well, minus liking WoW Classic. I cannot stand it. I can't play it a whole lot either. Being a university student is a huge time-sink.

[@Narcopathic]

Without a doubt the most knowledgable channel when it comes to actual vocal techniques in metal music. So effortlessly perfect. I'm certain my "screaming" has improved tremendously thanks to you!

[@TheHypernaught]

Dave Hunt said in an interview for their recent release Endarkenment, that he has watched vocal coaches break down his singing, and they mention what techniques he uses to produce different growls. Dave has no idea of the techniques they describe, he just does what feels right. I love the Gabba style drum in this tune. Similar to Atari Teenage Riot.

[@skooptywooop1030]

Link?

[@corielldoghc]

I LOVE ANAAL NATHRAKH it’s so good to see you covering Death Metal instead of death core. I love these guys, one of the best examples of extreme metal imo

[@reubenchadwick]

You may love them, but they arent death metal

[@gamevault4580]

They're pure industrial black metal

[@Xbuster6]

So... experimental extreme metal might be a good term then. Idk. It’s metal. I like sub genres to differentiate but when we get this in depth I just like to call it all metal. Or extreme metal. Who cares.

The genius of Anaal Nathrak is so apparent, it's hard not to get excited listening to them.

[@bro-rm5xo]

You have such a great channel dude, I love how you actually dissect what they're doing and not just sit there like many other reaction type channels.

[@matthewgodding777]

There's a decent live recording of forging towards the sunset by anaal, that shows how they split up those multilayered vocals live: would be cool to see you break that down, maybe in comparison to the studio version too, cos it's borderline note perfect and a decent recording (a festival i believe so pro shot). Plus it's a fucking tune. No one should get mad about the industrial references : it is. Their intent was to create an amalgamation of industrial, grindcore and black metal and just create the most visciously savage noise they could. Personally i reckon they succeeded in that.

[@jamesm6851]

Been listening to these guys since Eschaton and have been lucky enough to see them live quite a few times. They are vicious live- Dave Hunt is an absolute beast with just an amazing range. They are lovely guys too.

[@snakemetal988]

[@42k78]

I absolutely love what you do! I've never seen an experienced vocal coach break down vocals in heavy metal/deathcore like you do. It's great to see/hear because although I've always loved heavy music and the mosh pits and all that, metal has risen to a higher platform for me. Bands like Vildhjarta and Meshuggah actually have beautiful screaming that brings out a multitude of emotions for me. It's so much better then it used to be and I always want more! Please keep putting videos out! And if you haven't already, you should do a list of you favorite 10 screamers and why. I'd love to see that.

Dave Hunt's vocal style is extremely cool. He's the only singer I know that can actually make you believe he's screaming so loud and painfully that he's ripping his whole throat into pieces. So fun to see you talk about Anaal Nathrakh! I've always wondered, how does he do the type of vocals that are in the verse at 11:00? It basically sounds like he's sliding between distorted false-chord and actual full-on screams (the bad kind, with full voice). Sounds very difficult and y'know, potentially dangerous.
