Nile

Nile is a group of Brutal death American metal .

A light influence of the floridiens of Morbid Angel is felt in the plan of the tempos and structures of compositions used by Nile , which keeps all the same entirely its particularism.

After two album-demonstrations (Festivals off Atonement and Ramses Bringer off War), Nile leaves in 1998 its first true album: Amongst the Catacombs off Nephren-Ka (in reference to the Pharaon imagined by Lovecraft). The following album, Black Seeds off Revenge , contributes to reinforce the reputation of the formation, and the album was in particular indicated album of year 2000 as much by the editorial team that by the assistantship of the British magazine Terrorizer, which was seldom seen for a group of death metal. But the absolute dedication will accompany the exit by their troisème album, " In Their Darkened Shrines" , which is by far the album containing the most Eastern environments. According to the fans (and the specialized press), this album makes it possible the group to position with the Pantheon of the best groups of Death-Metal.

Their music although sometimes brutal and direct is sometimes very planing. One can notice the technical high level and the speed to which it has it mixes whose proof the musicians make. Nile mixes Egyptian and Eastern influences with energy with the Death metal. let us underline the use of guitars tuned in. What is also original it is the use of acoustic guitars 12 cords in order to supplement the music and to make environment more collected and dark. this whole of instruments creates a very dark sound, extrèmement powerful which supplements environments very well create in the music of the group.

The mixture with ethnic music, the topics approaching the Egyptian religion, the interpretation of hiéroglyphe… All that returns their original music and news.

The leader of the group, Karl Sanders, also left an album solo, entitled " Saurian Meditation". This album contains ideas which did not stick with the group and is a collection of Eastern musics to sonority envoûtante!
