Mantic Ritual, however, is a big pile of suck.
GTFO
I've never seen Nile live but I've always heard that they're really boring. These responses about their live shows are surprising me. I'll be checking them out on the Krisiun tour though, and I'm pretty excited to finally see them, since last time they were in town I left early to go across the street to watch Pelican.
Actually, I've started drinking again since that last post so let me re-do that rating:
Nile live: 10/10
Nile on CD: 9/10
How's that?

I'm torn because Nile is awesome and I wanna be like "raaahh can't believe you left" but at the same time Pelican is awesome too so I can't really say anything.
Agreed.

Enos, You Dipstick!
I find them boring live. I am usually at their show to see the other bands. I do like Nile on CD though.
Interesting, I don't like In Their Darkened Shrines for the exact same reason you don't like Annihilation haha. It just seemed like they didn't try after Black Seeds of Vengeance and spit out the same stuff. And Annihilation sounded fresh to me.
Also interesting, I find Nile extremely boring live even though I enjoy them on CD. It could be because I've seen them so many times though.

I tend to like every successive Nile album less than the previous one. My favorite is Amongst the Catacombs of Nephren-Ka. With each successive release, their sound gets clearer, but their songwriting gets... what is it... cheesier? I don't know.
I've never been bored by Nile live. In fact, they blew Cannibal Corpse off the stage the first time I saw them. Krisiun is pretty awesome live, too; I don't have any of their cds, but I always enjoy seeing them play.
Now, Pelican... THERE's a boring-ass band!

I don't know, I think there's enought variation between each successive Nile disc to keep things interesting, but this is one of those bands that kinda relies purely on taste, regardless, I'm looking forward to the latest. In Their Darkened Shrines is still their best IMO.

Hey... just because the rest of the world has decided to use a streamlined system, where everything is based on tens, doesn't mean we have to. Or have you forgotten, America is #1?
As for the new Nile... upon first listen, it's intriguing and I'll definitely give it a few more spins. The only other disc of theirs I've heard is Annihilation of the Wicked. I found it to be several flavors of awful. Comparatively speaking, this feels much more accessible, which I'm sure is what they were going for.

it's leaked i have it, but haven't had a chance to listen to it.
if promos have been sent out it will leak immediately. sadly enough reviewers are usually the main culprits to early leakage. not saying anything about anyone on this board, but speaking specifically about my releases leaking.
i am sure the new album will rock, but for me they can never top "Catacombs" that album rules!

I listened to it once, and while like it more than their last record, I need to play it more before I'm really convinced how much better it is. They seem to be into repeating a lot of ideas, and when they bring in the middle eastern/egyptian element, it can be maybe too little or subtle. I could go for them using it more often, and emphasizing it moreso than they do.

That's right baby, as soon as Brazil can crank out a 42 ton pick-up truck that gets 4 miles to the gallon (highway), during the middle of a gas crisis, you let me know. Until then, I'm measuring everything in inches.Oh, here we go again...
By the way...
New Immortal >>> New Nile
At least after one listen each.

If we ever do, I can guarantee you it'd be "7 kilometers to the gallon".
And new Immortal is brilliant as well. I am really enjoying it too. Check out new Hypocrisy yet?
