GMD Poll: Nile's Discography Ranked

[crimsonfloyd]

Directions: Rank Nile's 9 albums, and number each album 1-9. Ties are OK. Your first place album earns 9 points, your second place album earns 8 points, etc.

Rules:

• You may rank as few as 5 albums. Lists with less than 5 albums will not be counted.
• If you list less than 9 albums, the first placed album will still get 9 points, the last placed album will still get 1 point, and the albums in between will have points distributed proportionately. The average points earned for albums that are not listed will not be impacted positively or negatively, so if you don't rank an album, you neither help it or hurt it.
• If you don't number your list then it will be assumed that it is ranked in order

At the end, the albums will be ranked based on their average number of points per vote.

You have until Saturday, January 23rd at 10:00 AM PST to finalize your list, re-familiarize yourself albums you haven’t heard in awhile, familiarize yourself with albums you haven’t heard at all, lobby for any albums you think are underrated, and lobby against any albums you think are overrated.

it's crazy that 'annihilation of the wicked' is early nile at this point, only feels like a few years ago when that came out.

I’m also a fan of Ithyphallic. Eat of the Dead is fucking monstrous doom metal dirge and Even the Gods Must Die still makes the hair on my neck stand up.

6-9 are kinda interchangeable but I remember songs from Those and @TheGate so they’re higher.

lol whut? There isn't a bad Nile album to begin with.

It might have been years of Krigloch shitting on that album that made me think that the entire forum hates it. He is after all the biggest Nile fan here.

 

[CiG]

And he loves shitting.

[zabu of nΩd]

This is one discog I don't see the point of ranking. I've listened to most of their albums multiple times, and they sound pretty much the same, especially the 2000s era. I'd be curious to know what differences people hear between them.
