NILE - To Strike with Secret Fang (Lyric Video) | Napalm Records

[@brianbernal1333]

The year: sometime in the late 90s. The place: a local venue here in southern California where all the death metal bands play. My friends and I pull up to the parking lot of the showcase theatre. Tonight we will see Morbid Angel. We are very early as usual. The sun is still out. We walk up to the front steps. There sits a short and stocky dude polishing his guitar fretboard. We strike up a conversation. We ask if he is playing tonight. Yes of course he is. His name is karl. We ask what band hes in. Nile he says. So whats it like we ask. Kinda hard to explain but its pretty brutal. We talk a little longer and then go on our way. We dont know who this karl guy is but he seems like a cool dude. We are here for Morbid Angel tonight! Fast forward an hour and sound checks are going on inside. We peek inside the cracked open front door and we see karl climb up on stage. Nile does a full rehearsal of the song Barra Edinazu. We pick our jaws up off the floor and reinsert them into our face. Nile blew the fuckin roof off in soundcheck. Holy shit these guys are gonna be big. They brought the house down later that night. Their music, relentless , innovative, colorfull, and soul crushing. Good to see that 25 years later the saga continues!

Same time my band stdredd opened for them ,clueless. They came on and changed my drumming forever 🕷🕷☠

[@HairyPixels]

I saw Nile on the Black Seeds of Vengeance tour before I ever heard their music before. I never heard metal like that before and I've been a fan ever since.

[@89gt5.0]

Great story 🤘💀🤘 got to see them in the annihilation of the wicked tour with Decapitated and Hypocrisy. Killer show

[@HroduuulfSonOfHrodger]

You should've seen Hatebreed in '95. Same thing. We knew they were the heaviest thing we'd heard since Pantera's Vulgar Display, and we knew they were going to be the biggest hardcore band ever. NO ONE had breakdowns as heavy as Hatebreed did when their demo cassette came out and later their debut LP. The mosh pit aftermath would have blood all over the dance floor, broken bones/noses, and teeth laying everywhere. It was nuts. This was VA Beach area in the mid-90s. And we were right: they became the biggest hardcore band to date.

[@scottbromage2210]

Awesome memory man!!!! I’m envious!!! Happy for you tho!

[@SuicidalGrind]

They somehow made a just below 2 minute song have pretty much all the Nile-isms and still managed to make it a really good song. Really killer shiiiiiiiiieeeet.

[@masterresonax6642]

At 642 bpm 2 minutes is really a 22 minute song sped up immensely lol

[@xpwfan1981]

​@@masterresonax6642thank George kolias for being able to play that fast...lol

[@jsullivan2112]

Yeah the first two tracks on the record are decent but this one made my ears prick up. 🤘🏻

[@bishalneupane7]

How can it not be awesome? It's NILE !!!

[@ThatBrutalVocalGuy]

Producer : how much Nile do you get in 2 Minutes ? Nile : yes!

[@TheLotusMachine]

Lovely stuff, very relaxing.

[@stereoraptormusic]

Definitely a love-making track, and also the perfect soundtrack to listen to while watering the flowers on the garden. Seriously, try that out!

[@AndreLuis-oo6bf]

[@AndreLuis-oo6bf]

😂

[@levis569]

​@@AgentBeansI don't see how people sleep w any noise😅

[@tylerbailey9329]

Unironically, yes. I find death metal to be oddly therapeutic. Like a sonic lava lamp of chaos.

[@TheJollyMisanthrope]

Metal fans are fortunate. Regardless of the crap being pumped out by the big labels, we get to look forward to some amazing music, year in and year out.

[@MrNecryptic]

We truly are, thanks for the "silver-lining perspective, "happiest of haters" x)

[@CocolocoVk]

George Kollias is to drumming as Amon-Ra is to the Egyptian gods. He is in the top of the pyramid 🤩

[@DirMrsHQoftheScreamingGhouls]

The drummer in this band is mind blowing

[@adamdaw5313]

Nile with massive black metal chords is always my favourites on their albums

[@DeadByThousandCuts]

Always stoked for a new Nile record! 😁

[@DeaDlyCorpsE528]

I really enjoyed this song more than the first single, i love that brutal tone but more contained and not all over the place. This song feels like annihilation of the wicked's tempo n style. Really looking forward to more like this and the tour

[@tamasgyulai3039]

Short but HUGE track!!!! Nice

[@yopidesick]

When your day is sucks,just listening Nile

[@rushshukla4636]

The most brutal band on earth. No one comes close to Nile!

[@roryomalley1900]

Soooooo many bands that are more brutal but I love Nile and your enthusiasm

[@MetalDeathHead]

@@roryomalley1900 bs, no band is more brutal

[@Kiryu_Kazuma01]

New Nile song?! Let’s go!

[@jimmyandersson5280]

Kicks butt! Album pre-ordered 🤘

[@Yuridrial]

As always - ЕГИПЕТСКАЯ СИЛА!!!

[@panduasmoro]

Always listening from their released at KZbin. Sick part!!!!

[@TECHDeathTIME]

Amazing!

[@annamopfeet]

A two minute bliss

[@wandcfirst]

Utterly brilliant! to condense all the great things about Nile in under two minutes..genius.

[@itsfine5818]

Both songs they've released from the upcoming album have been an absolute bangers. I'm not even a huge fan of Nile, I'm what you would call an occasional listener but I'm very excited to hear The Underworld Awaits us All

[@blackscorpion49rus42]

Powerful, waiting for the full album🤘🤘

[@nathanatkin1984]

Straight forward (as far as Nile goes), catchy & brutal. This album will be a masterpiece! 🤘

[@aarong3615]

This brings me great pleasure 🖤🤘

[@sid8680]

Listening to a real high voltage song from Nile after a while. Though they kinda were all over the place after the AOTW album, this seems very much to the point and high octane.

[@JLOMAGNETO]

Love it! In such style only Nile could deliver 🎉

[@Skoozatz]

Gets me so emotional and misty eyed. I heart Nile.

[@MarcusSandoval-kx2th]

I can't stop weeping 😢

[@Kelly_editz-z5b_fanny-lover]

Hail from Greece

[@marcocoloampuero528]

Hail Nile!

[@MarcusSandoval-kx2th]

Jesus Christ, Napalm Records has the dopest bands 🤘😎🤘

[@The_Dusk_Sage]

Bringing back some Annihilation of the Wicked vibes, nice 👌🏼

[@blasphemergrc6794]

The mix is next level this time !!! ΠΑΜΕ ΡΕ ΓΙΩΡΓΑΡΑ!

[@MetalDeathHead]

the mix is terrible, guitars way too clean and dry

[@toolband1992]

Cannot wait 4 the record and see them live in September. Last time 2022 and was gig of the year. Incredible band. Thanks. :)

[@emersonribeiro6664]

Nile , very good, 👍🤘👊🎼🎵🔥

[@papichulobr]

Song structures and instrumentals are great...i just can't get into the vocals since Dallas left.

[@stevengarcia8428]

[@tylerbailey9329]

[@andrelira27]

What a beautiful, peaceful and enjoyable piece of art...

[@kingthorgrim1591]

No disrespect to newer bands but most of them wish they were releasing material that's this good

[@jeffreylieberman1668]

God damn..... Killer song and not too long...🤘

[@davidburns6284]

This is far out, man. I don't know how I'm going to wait until August 23rd. Oh...gnarly.

[@maciej_lekawa]

Świetny kawałek - krótki i ekstrmalny - taki powinien być cały album - utwory nie więcej niż 3 minutu i będzie pierwsza klasa

[@sankalpachhetri1966]

Nile=Home

[@johnholton8157]

Sounds like it's going to be a good album.

[@thenotrap1736]

Good stuff

Karl, you freaking genius.

[@schillinger7814]

A blast!!!!

[@PauloHenrique-kz1cq]

This track has a melodic take. Interesting!

[@WeHaveShredAtHome]

Omfg yes...this hit the spot. \m/

[@asiflash]

i'm not a fan from the first song they have presented from the forthcoming album but this one really kicks ass. Love the bendings as always and the black Metal part is awesome too. It's just sad that it's under 2 minutes ;-)

[@ЭльфридаЭлениэльЦиэль]

[@okniiv]

The better your speakers, the better it gets.

[@SBK2552]

The rhythm of the instrumentals make me think a lot of their song Snakepit Mating Frenzy.

[@Grindermetalhead]

Fuck yeah!

[@tommydrums666]

New Nile and then a week later new Wintersun??? I suppose I'll hold off killing myself til at least September (Joking)

[@SuicidalGrind]

Well, ironically this might be the most relatable comment anyone will ever put on this video. Metal keeps us alive \m/

Brazil again, please :)

[@geraramherdez4641]

Fucking rolon 🚬 toca repetirla 10 veces

[@TheSeraphim17]

Pretty tasty

[@Ruffnek310]

More 2 min songs! Bring on the grindcore this aint opeth

[@Agandaur-ls5yr]

That's what is really unique about Nile though - they can make both 2 min grindcore songs (those songs are still quite complex musical pieces compared to most other stuff out there) and slower, longer, Opeth-style songs, while still maintaining their own style and atmosphere

[@gnopec3374]

Total massacre. I love those double bass drums.

[@Metalarny]

great song but it takes longer to read the title of the previous track they released than this one lasts 😀

[@rothbardfreedom]

Assassin's Creed next music theme.
