NILE: 'In The Beginning' Reissue Due In May
April 13, 2006NILE will re-release "In the Beginning" on May 16 via the newly formed Nile Records imprint through Megaforce Records. A collection of early recordings, combining both rare early EPs into a single collectible package, it features the original lineup of NILE and showcases the recorded history of one extreme metal's most creative bands.
With four critically acclaimed-albums, a few EPs and several world tours under their belt, NILE has raised the bar for extreme metal bands musically, lyrically and conceptually. Their brutal and withering live performances are nothing short of legendary. Through force of will and dedication to their craft, NILE is one of extreme metal's brightest hopes for the new millennium.
Formed in 1993 by Karl Sanders (guitar/vocals),Chief Spires (bass/vocals),and Pete Hammoura (drums),NILE wasted little time combining their interest in Egyptian history, culture and lore with the ferocity of modern death metal. Using a symphonic approach to songwriting and arrangement, NILE unleashed an uncompromising attack that fused unique, technical death metal with organic Middle Eastern tones. Their unique lyrical approach was inspired by Sanders' interpretation of ancient Egyptian inscriptions, temple carvings, papyri, hieroglyphics and tomb paintings depicting ancient battles, rituals and religious ceremonies.
