i love me some nile they are just a bit one-note

with that said they have at least three excellent albums

i will never go past itds, it is the classic that got me into them, but i think amongst the catacombs is a purer album, bit more raw and experimental
more metal

Worship The Animal and those early eps right up through Black Seeds are the win 100%.

Darkened Shrines is mostly pretty neat. Every album since has at least one okay song, but I sard hard.

I know this echoes a lot of generic popular criticism of them, but I do really feel like Karl sacrificed a lot of atmosphere for wankery.

Masturbating The War God... that song gives me goosebumps everytime. That middle section towards the end is fucking insane.

I like em but it just got to be too repetitive after a while. Karl should branch out more even if it doesn’t involve Nile.

it was a 50/50 split of material from catacombs/bsov/itds versus stuff from later albums for the set they did here. a much healthier mix than i expected :ba:

some albums are good, some are not.
the more you get towards their later albums the more they all sound alike.
