Ok Nazi.
I'm glad there are still folk out there that haven't been burned out on Nile.
I saw Nile live around 7 years ago, with Morbid Angel and Carcass. The show was incredibly powerful. The performances and sound were spot on. It's a band that any metalhead into extreme metal must see live at least once. Same with Cannibal Corpse.Now let's not overrate Nile. They're an ok little band with a real clever gimmick, and the musicianship has been solid to top notch throughout their run. Karl Sanders is a consummate professional. Thing is you take the samples away and it's a moderately above average death metal band. I saw the absolute shit out of them when I was in high school and in the early years of young adulthood because they were local, and it was just too much exposure for a band that was pretty good but not great. I still occasionally listen to Festivals of Atonement and Catacombs, but I have no desire to see them go through the motions of a live show at 50 something. If they had been less available to me in the day, I might feel differently.
BUT WHAT DO YOU MEAN? EVERYONE HERE SHOULD BE BURNED OUT ON CANNIBAL CORPSE BY NOW that type on mindset being anywhere near the metal community amazes me.Same with Cannibal Corpse.

Same with Cannibal Corpse.
The Cannibal Corpse comparison is an apt one, in the sense that both bands have elevated professionally executed, well-constructed, but not particularly earth shattering death metal to levels it would not have reached otherwise with a smartly integrated, thoroughgoing concept/gimmick.
Now let's not overrate Nile...
you're saying two different things. I have no problem with you saying "i dont like them as much now because they're not as good as i thought they were when i was younger" .... but saying "i dont like them as much now because i've heard them too much" basically indicates that you were never a true fan of the band to begin with.
and this is where i stopped reading. This cunt just reeks of in-crowd.This is a semantics issue
Considering going to see Overkill and Exhorder in Atlanta in March but it's 3 days before my wedding and on a work night. And Atlanta is two hours away.
Might say fuck it, though.
