favorite nile album(s)

[burzumkilledmayhem]

im going with annihilation of the wicked or In their darkened shrines, im lately listening to ithyphallic alot, but i dont think its quite as good as these two, ive heard all of there albums cover to cover, but the ones listed ive listened to most thoroughly, so my opinions may be clouded, but i think those are the best

Haven't heard the first album but from what I have, Annihilation of the Wicked.

Annihilation of The Wicked for sure, Ithyphallic doesn't really bring anything new, just more ear raping Nile songs. I like Amongst the Catacombs of Nephren-Ka too. Hell come to think of it, I like all their albums..

Annihilation of the Wicked. ITDS pretty much sucks.

 

[burzumkilledmayhem]

i think there all pretty good lol

 

[Episteme]

In order of best to least favourite in my opinion:
Black Seeds of Vengeance, Annihilation of the Wicked, In the Darkened Shrines, Amongst the Catacombs of Nephren-Ka, Ithyphallic. I found Ithyphallic immensely boring. I'm hoping their new one takes them back to the technical/brutal yet awesome compositional skills of Annihilation of the Wicked.

Ithyphallic almost won because of Eat of the Dead alone...

Black Seeds of Vengeance & In Their Darkened Shrines

Hardly listen to them anymore, but when I do it's usually BSoV.

In Their Darkened Shrines is obviously first.

Black Seeds is pretty much a blueprint for Darkened Shrines.

I think Ithyphallic and Annihilation are about even, considering they're pretty much the same.

Amongst The Catacombs is pretty much just plan brutal death with some eastern sounding stuff thrown in. Pretty solid, but nothing special.

I would rank them:

In Their Darkened Shrines
...
...
...
...
Ithyphallic
Annihilation of the Wicked
Amongst The Catacombs of Nephen-Kra
Black Seeds Of Vengeance

We've had a few identical to this actually.

It's always been Nephrin-Ka, but I was pretty impressed when I heard Annihilation of the Wicked.
