I had the hoodie they released for this album. It was my prized possession, I wore it every day. One night I went to a house party, got black out drunk and when I woke up in the morning the hoodie was gone. I searched everywhere for it but never found it. To this day, some 17 years later, I still miss that hoodie and get periodically pissed off I lost it. Such is life.

On Myspace, Nile ran a draw to see who would attend the Master Class given by Karl Saunders before the Concert in Cleveland. I was one of the winners, met the band and took the lesson. Then saw the soundcheck with back stage passes. I had made a King Tut themed flying V using Warmoth components, gold leafed with 24kt gold. I had stayed up all night to be ready and then asked Dallas if he wanted to use my King Tut Guitar for soundcheck. He realized I didnt tune the lowest string to D from E and handed it back. I was so close to hearing my guitar play this albums music, but he posed for photos with it after the check. Then we watched this albums concert.

Throughout time there have been only a handful of brutal albums that will live forever. This, my friends, is one of them. When you go years and years without hearing an album and then you put it on and remember every nuance and note, every riff by heart from the depths of your mind - you know it's one of the legacy albums. So many memories from this album. Metal will never die.

I remember buying this album the day it came out, and being absolutely blown away by this death metal masterpiece, didnt take this out of my cd player for months, George Kollias took them to the next level. Still one of the best in Nile's catalog. You shall be lashed to the slave stick..

I still remember buying this album in 2005 then taking it home and delving into it after smoking some weed. I was still exploring death metal at the time and when I heard this everything clicked and it blew my ass away like few albums have done before or since. It's one of those game changers for me as far as musical exploration goes. User-Maat-Re is probably my favorite Nile song ever.

Every fucking instrument is played at a very high level of musicianship, everything is perfectly combined, everything is perfectly mixed and the mastering is just amazing, the album cover artwork is also great. I love Nile and I really love this album. There are not many gems like this and it's fantastic that albums like this one do exist!!!!!!!!!!

The more my internet forum echochambers proclaimed "this is more brutal!" the more interested I was. Anything on the level of popularity of Nile was quickly abandonend. Lo and behold 15 years later, what stuck around? Nile. I haven't listened to this album in at least a year or two but the riffs are still fresh in my mind. The "brutality" is comparable if not better than whaterver shit Unique Leader band I was into at the time. The opening riff of Sacrifice Unto Sebek is burned into my brain and there it shall stay.

17:56 holy fuck this sounds like very gates of the Duat opening !!! well done Nile, really.

The riff in Chapter of Obeisance... at 23:34 is one of my favorite Nile riffs ever. The way it comes in out of nowhere is sick. Its only a 8 second or so riff. Nile has a lot of riffs like that where they could build a song off of it or maybe do a fading outro but for some reason only tease you with it.

My first ever moshpit was on 'Lashed to the Slave Stick', sparked my love for death metal.

扣人心弦 賺人熱淚🤧🤧 傑作

One of the best death metal albums, ever! Amazing energy!

When I listen to Annihilation of the Wicked, I feel a sense of vindication and justice. I feel like all wrongs have been made right. The slow tempos of User Maat Re and Chapter of Obeisance remind me of the gradual, unrelenting march of time while the title track forbids me from doing any evil. What a great album. Much like a sprawling oasis amid the sand dunes of the Sahara, the album too is one in Death Metal.

My favorite Nile album. It's probably a lot of people's favorite Nile album too. Who agrees with me?

great composition

Shout out to Neil Kernon's excellent production on this album. Visceral yet hugely atmospheric. Apparently they didn't even EQ the guitars! Drums really natural as well and not compressed to shit like so much other technical DM. A huge part of that is down to Kollias' technique, of course, but Neil really captured a moment on this album.

Fantastic album!!! Nile released some of the best and interesting death metal albums since the nineties, Nile is a death metal band with added value, thanks RelapseRecords for sharing and cheers!!!!!!!!!!!

17 (!) years later and I don't think Nile will ever realistically top this. That's not to say that continuing on is pointless. In fact, I dont think they're expected to, at least not in my mind. How do you top this ? You don't. You just keep churning out bloodcurdling, sick and crushing stuff year after year that is arguably head and shoulders above the rest.. Some time has passed and they've released some really phenomenal stuff, I love it all.

This is one of the best death metal albums of all time. It is a masterpiece, and absolutely astounding in all aspects. I think that some death metal bands forget that in order to make heavy riffs, there’s much more required than just tuning low and chugging. What makes these riffs so heavy is their attitude, they just exude pure evil, thanks to their use of Egyptian scales and careful composition. Another feature is their excellent use of scary-sounding pinch harmonics, which sound like the guitar is literally crying out in pain. One guy put it “they sound like being stabbed in the neck with a scimitar.” Listening to Nile, I can imagine myself in a dark Egyptian tomb. I can clearly visualize what they’re talking about, because their playing seems to embody these concepts and brings them to life. Just listen to the outro breakdown of Von Unnausprechlichen Kulten. The drums in this album are also nuts, like being rained upon by blow after blow. I love how, at times, the growls sound like a giant slab of stone being dragged over another, like a passeway closing shut. And the lyrics. These guys did a LOT of research. Their material is a veritable crash course on ancient Egyptian Mythology. They don’t need to fill their lyrics with senseless amounts of gore in order to make them dark and foreboding. This album is one crushing riff after another, with morbid, suggestive lyrics that could easily be part of a longer horror novel. Sure, there may be lower-tuned bands out there, or bands with more violent lyrics, but I think that this band makes some of the absolute best death metal around. EDIT: Okay so it's not the most brutal album of all time like I previously claimed (I think that would be The Elysian Grandeval Galeriarch by Infant Annihilator.) but it is nonetheless a badass riff monster of a album, and one of the most well-done.

I got to see these guys a few years ago In a small bar. George's drumming was just amazing, the guy sits there playing this shit and looks like he's falling asleep just bashing away.

It's fucking funny when they name a track that is at least ten words long. I'm waiting for the day when one track is an essay on the back of the album.

Bal-Sagoth do it a fair amount; they have an album called "Starfire Burning Upon The Ice-Veiled Throne Of Ultima Thule" with song names like "And Lo, When the Imperium Marches Against Gul-Kothoth, Then Dark Sorceries Shall Enshroud the Citadel of the Obsidian Crown" Don't let the long names put you off though, they're excellent and not as edgy as they sound
