World Minus Population

The band is called An, they are from Finland, and they don't much care for us humans, in fact they welcome our end. They celebrate suicide, genocide, ebola and just about anything that exists to see that we don't. "Revelation I: World Minus Population," released in 2005, is An's only full-length album so far. Its anti-human bent is complete down to the atmosphere, songwriting and the cover art (yeah, that's a pile of dead bodies). An present themselves as emotionless tyrants, overseers of the unpleasant, but necessary, destruction of mankind. Black metal, death metal, ambient-industrial metal, whatever. An are so beyond your labels, your sub-sub-sub-genres, your blog, your myspace, your planet, your bullshit, your smug smiling face, and really, what will it matter when your burned and broken body is but a fleck in a planet-wide mass grave? An will see it done. I can't even begin to describe how cold, sinister, malcious, and great this is. Just get it from here, subhuman filth.

  3. I love this. Thank you. My favorite band that I have discovered through the Hearse.I noticed that the track lengths have some significance, two of them are 3:33, thus adding up to 666. But what about the four that clock in at 7:06? Is there a biblical reference I'm missing, or is it just some math that I haven't put enough thought into?

  4. Still listening to this one almost daily. Serious staying power. Why have only two other people commented on this? To the people that missed this: Quit trying to suck your own dick, and get this tasty fuck right here! Thanks again Aesop.

  5. Yeah, it's fucking lethal. I guess nobody cared because it was posted a ways back when I had fewer readers.

  6. This album is fantastic. They also released a demo/promo in 2005 and an EP in 2003 (according to http://www.metal-archives.com/band.php?id=17725). The website is pretty sparse but there is an email address.

    It would definitely be nice to see something in the future from An!

    add 3:33 to another 3:33 and you have 7:06 which is actually 6:66. easy enough? ;)

  8. Any chance for a re-up on this? The link appears to be dead and nowhere else on the internets does there appear to be a working download.

    I would truly appreciate it!

  10. Should TheTheory happen to check back here, or should anybody else come along looking for this (utterly fantastic) album, the download link is still active at this post:
