HANL released their first full-length record in January of 2008, a double-album entitled Deathconsciousness.

The two discs (entitled The Plow that Broke the Plains and The Future, respectively) feature music spanning over five years of collaboration between the two artists, and are accompanied by a 75-page booklet on medieval Italian heretics in lieu of liner notes. The album was entirely self-released, right down to the hand-painted discs, and put out via the Enemies List Home Recordings label.

Their second release, an E.P. entitled "Time of Land," is available for free as a digital download. www.enemieslist.net/timeofland
