I've been familiar with the first four Nile albums since back when they were coming out, but I hadn't spent much time with the later stuff. I'd have to say that I'm quite impressed and that I might actually favor some of the newer albums. After listening to At the Gate of Sethu on repeat, I was perplexed by how poorly regarded that album seems to be. It's an absolute killer. I see a lot of complaints about the production but it's great. Everything is clear and crisp. The songs are memorable. Album just rips.
