Lyrics:
Who Dares Disturb
My Blissful Sleep
Again in Anger
Must I Rise
How Long Unknown
I Lay Emtombed
My World
So Long Forgotten
Did Disown Me
Usurper
I was Scorned
Ah
The Suffering They did Inflict
Stained With Cosmic Black Sins
The Sun No Longer Sets Me Free

[@WorldWar3]

This one of the most devestating songs ever, even though it's one of Nile's slowest. The ending is basicly the soundtrack to the end of the world. Incredible

[@kneestothechin]

They somehow made a brutal video about egyptians that felt authentic without anything egyptian in the video whatsoever

[@jackrowe9695]

Saw them live during this album! Best night of my life. Autographed T-shirt and hang out with the band while everyone else was inside watching Behemoth! Epic Fn night!

[@mleni12]

Best Nile is the slow Nile.....

[@NAT-turners-Revenge]

@@mleni12 exactly 😅.... its no Mystery

[@sdjmacdiaz]

Hell yea Sarcophagus and To Dream of Ur are two of my favorite Nile songs. Slow and entrancing and heavier than time!

[@hvrjstn]

One of the best death metal tracks ever devised by mortals.

[@deathdoomdarkness6124]

You imply Nile are merely mortal...

[@dante666jt]

Yes agreeable

[@anthonylongo1465]

It was actually devised by a Pharaoh-God. Nile just channeled it

[@kforceRecords]

this song is about awakening Ra out of his blessed rest and him remembering all the mean things humans did to him, and forgot about Ra.

[@mtss9566]

... And a great tune too😅

[@sharkboi4265]

To the people commenting on the skin colours of the people in the video, I hope you haven't forgotten how diverse Ancient Egypt (mainly Ptolemaic) was. It was a mix of ethnicities consisting of the original Egyptians and also Roman infantry stationed because of Caesar and Cleopatra's union such as the Gabiniani. Also, interracial marriages were not uncommon. Sometimes this mixture of cultures resulted in the birth of Gods that were parallel in each faith's idea of belief. There was even a brother of Hades allegedly that was born with the head of a jackal, as with Anubis.

[@harvesterofsorrow111]

This seems to me to be Nile's God Of Emptiness, epic song and a nice change of pace from the other stuff. Love it when Death Metal bands do this. Just shows the level of songwriting and musicianship that they achieve.

[@sleepforever8378]

Yes but its also nice for them to be consistent as well

[@xxLonniExx]

I wish they did more of this kind of stuff!

3:00 - 3:30 one of the greatest moments of Metal and Music in general… Majestic!

4:24 - that ride stuff is just incredible

Especially since his second ride is a sawblade lol. Can’t afford or (most likely) doesn’t want to handle 2 full sized rides, so you gotta make due

The final part should never end

[@RubberChicken10000]

Talked (very briefly) to Karl Sanders after one of their shows and he was just the nicest guy.

[@TheDarkElder]

The heavy rolling underline in that song is just frighteningly solid. It just keeps rolling on an on, all over you and pounds you into the sands of the Egyptian deserts.

[@MossMan5000]

So simple but so brutal. I love this track.

[@nr655321]

You really think this is simple?!

Could you suggest some more technical songs?

[@FockeWulfFW200]

@@nr655321 we could say it's simple if we compare it with other Nile songs

Awesome lyrics, awesome sound, awesome riffs, awesome song, awesome band.

the intro is really dark and mystic

Peak of death metal music. After this period in time, everything is generic, plastic, over-produced or already heard.

You got a good point, but not all of it only 99.9% there’s a little more out there

[@Akirapoet]

Holy god of drums!

[@stuinchains]

I've been listening to Death Metal for a while but never given Nile a go this is my 1st time, I'm impressed

[@richmondyayarea]

Glad you like them, I really suggest you give all of their albums a listen. They're really good. The first ones you should check out though are: 1. Those Who The Gods Detest 2. In Their Darkened Shrines 3. Black Seeds of Vengeance

[@SmokeCheesus]

***** And At The Gates of Sethu and Annhilation of the Wicked. Those 2 albums kickass. Those are the 2 that I started with.

[@nowimhigh]

I started with Black Seeds of Vengence when that first came out so that one will always kick ass. But I love From Who the Gods Detest. and Annihilation of the wicked

[@nr655321]

I pity people who claim to appreciate good music but don't get extreme metal. They are missing A LOT. Not only the actual music, but also all these outstanding artists who sacrifice so much for their art. Honestly, these days where else but in extreme metal can one see such integrity, modesty and dedication?

If mainstream artists still had the musical integrity to write what they want to hear creatively, not fall prey to big record companies that are purely gunning for profit, and write without catering to fans, then hell yeah it should be mainstream.
