The Codex Necro is the first studio album by British extreme metal band Anaal Nathrakh. It was released on 22 November 2001.

The album was re-released on 24 April 2006, with four additional bonus tracks taken from the John Peel BBC Radio One Session broadcast on 16 December 2003.[1] It was again re-released in 2009, with four additional bonus tracks taken from the We Will Fucking Kill You demo.[2]

Background

The person being suffocated on the album cover is Mick Kenney's younger brother.[3] The album features sound samples from films such as Event Horizon, Excalibur, The Legend of Hell House, Omen III: The Final Conflict and Platoon[citation needed]. The 2006 re-release features the first ever live performance of "The Oblivion Gene", later to appear in its full re-recorded form on the subsequent album Domine Non Es Dignus.[1] The title "Human, All Too Fucking Human" is a reference to Friedrich Nietzsche's philosophical text Human, All Too Human (Menschliches, Allzumenschliches, 1878).
