NILE - Black Seeds Of Vengeance (12" LP on Orange Krush Vinyl w/ Black Ice Spinners & Halloween Orange, Silver, Red Splatters)

Awaken the mighty Apophis! In a mere two years, Nile has carved its name as a formidable musical force, matching the grandeur of the renowned river itself. "Black Seeds Of Vengeance" stands as an unrelenting, searing death metal onslaught that transcends the energy and brilliance of the band's critically-acclaimed debut, "Amongst The Catacombs Of Nephren-Ka." This album unveils Nile's fury in an even more epic, brutal, and profound light.

Marrying distinctive, technical death metal with Middle Eastern tones, the album weaves a lyrical narrative inspired by interpretations of ancient Egyptian temple carvings, hieroglyphics, and tomb paintings. Nile not only sets new musical standards for death metal but also elevates the genre conceptually and lyrically. The album erupts from ominous, funereal tranquility into violent passages of hyper-grinding ferocity, painting vivid tales of conquest, subjugation, war, and domination.

"Black Seeds Of Vengeance" serves as a monumental testament of power, with vicious guitar riffs intertwining with thunderous drum blasts, frenzied solos, and an overwhelming three-vocalist onslaught. This ambitious masterwork incorporates traditional instruments like tempuras, sitars, gongs, kettle drums, Tibetan Doom horns, African choirs, and layers of harmonious sound as thick as the sacred walls of ancient tombs. Cinematic in both scope and feel, the album solidifies Nile's position in the pantheon of metal elite. Seek refuge while the living still outnumber the dead.
