Also, being a Muslim nation now Metal music really isn't embraced or accepted as any kind of norm, there have been several metal musicians native to countries in the region who have been killed because of it or imprisoned on basically heresy charges. It isn't safe for them to play there.

The more my internet forum echochambers proclaimed "this is more brutal!" the more interested I was. Anything on the level of popularity of Nile was quickly abandonend. Lo and behold 15 years later, what stuck around? Nile. I haven't listened to this album in at least a year or two but the riffs are still fresh in my mind. The "brutality" is comparable if not better than whaterver shit Unique Leader band I was into at the time. The opening riff of Sacrifice Unto Sebek is burned into my brain and there it shall stay.

I had stayed up all night to be ready and then asked Dallas if he wanted to use my King Tut Guitar for soundcheck. He realized I didnt tune the lowest string to D from E and handed it back.

17 (!) years later and I don't think Nile will ever realistically top this. That's not to say that continuing on is pointless. In fact, I dont think they're expected to, at least not in my mind. How do you top this ? You don't. You just keep churning out bloodcurdling, sick and crushing stuff year after year that is arguably head and shoulders above the rest.. Some time has passed and they've released some really phenomenal stuff, I love it all.

[@danknormie4986]

@Andy in their darkened shrined was released before annihilation of the wicked !!

[@Buzzah]

Even after all these years this is still my favourite album ever written!!!

[@danielholland4520]

man 14:40 in User-Maat-Re is some of the craziest sounding shit i've ever heard, its so simple but GAHDAMN does it do somethin to me

[@coldwelthsimms5958]

I want to learn belly dance just so I can belly dance to this 😅

[@beaubrotzman3141]

That'll get your work outs on. 😬

[@simonarsenault3298]

Thats called f***ing lmao

[@brewtalityk]

I've always wondered who the fuck downvotes music on youtube. If you don't like it gtfo especially if you know you don't like metal and you come here to say dumb shit

Cast down the heretic's solo EATS most of the Brutal Death Metal Genre.

[@libertyprime4280]

This shit is the DEFINITION OF DEATH METAL they deserve their own genre. Fuckin NILE METAL

[@chriswalshcustomguitars3962]

Shout out to Neil Kernon's excellent production on this album. Visceral yet hugely atmospheric. Apparently they didn't even EQ the guitars! Drums really natural as well and not compressed to shit like so much other technical DM. A huge part of that is down to Kollias' technique, of course, but Neil really captured a moment on this album.

[@josearriaga1227]

This album is sick beginning to end. Cast down the heretic is just absolutely crushing

[@XxChrisxXBedofRazors]

Recommend: Nile - Annihilation of the Wicked Other Recommended: Red-sided water snake hunting black-spotted pond frog Me: Watching a frog get eaten alive by a Snake while listening to Nile

[@joeyuzwa891]

Ok, to be fair that is pretty fucking Nile. Frogs and snakes both are very prominent in Egyptian myth

[@0reason2exist]

I'm 34. I still remember when this came out.

[@murmurs6618]

'annihilation of the wicked' the song about what is the death metal precisely

[@sintheticsounds1686]

Cast Down the Heroin never gets old.

[@defibrilatorr]

I've listened to a lot of albums, from the softest genres to the most brutal genres, and there's no album that tires me as physically as this one.

[@mattirealm]

I love this album. This is just so fucking badass. My only issue with Nile is inconsistency. They have great stuff like this, but then miss on other albums. Great band, just wish they were more consistent.

[@JeanneMadsen]

This is masterpiece

[@RamblinVan]

17:10 you can pinpoint the moment at which an ancient mummy explodes at the chest, hundreds of feet below the earth in the catacombs of a pyramid, unleashing a whirlwind of scarabs to wipe out all those who ran and hid from sacrificing blood and sweat so the ancient gods may save our world from the horrors of modern man

[@mercilessoverlord1330]

"Annihilation of the Wicked" best song from them and one of the best in the world ever.

[@louisblack8474]

I would say in their darkened shrines has some pretty technical drumming while annihilation of the wicked has very advanced guitar work, not that either isn't proficient at both!

[@SelfHealingGod]

Busted 2 headphones on his album. For me a band which changed Metal is Death. So for me that is the greatest moment which I thought will be over. Then Nile came and took over. I been listening to Metal since the 80's. So let's see who can take it up a notch. As for now, I don't see anything as good as Death & Nile.

[@williamdarkzydeblackenedha9344]

I am also old school metal...give the latest cattle decapitation albums a listen. They are fantastic.

[@giuliomoro26]

Very interesting, i can use this album to let the childrens fall asleep =D

[@peppefrasca5179]

Non credo funzionerà, al massimo cominciano a fare headbang brutale

[@joeyuzwa891]

I’ve found this album (and Nile in general) is great to fall asleep to. It’s got a thick, cozy production to it and all of their songs have fantastic atmosphere.

[@AndrewMarloweTV]

the low guttural vocals on this album still remains unchallenged by even nile....they never reached this level of brutality on the vocals ever again after this album for some reason

[@claudes04]

This is and will always will be in my top 3 albums It is a masterpiece... very well made, excellent quality and skill

[@sudharsanpaskaran]

This is legendary. How the fuck did you guys make this! This music is for war !!! I fucking love it! Thank you, fine gentlemen. 😎

[@JeanWagner-]

Searching for wi-fi

[@JeanWagner-]

Crunchy ❤🎉😮😅😊😢😅❤

[@juleitf]

[@MrAlki]

I will talk about it...its a brutal tone on this album

[@HeatherRichardson-g3p]

As will i
