@@neigtchur Fun fact if we go back to Gateways to Annihilation, he actually did have health problems related to drumming! He revealed in an Instagram comment section that pretty much the reason why the Opening Of the Gates chorus has sped up kicks (280BPM) is because he tried to play it at 240BPM first, but Trey wanted it to be faster, however when he played it at 270BPM I presume what happened is that his back was being too strained from that speed and therefore he was told he has to slow down with that stuff (no pun intended) I guess what it comes down to is the more you keep pushing yourself hard, the more you're gonna feel it in your body as you get older. We are still human, not robots. Any level of technique won't matter when it comes to getting old. So yeah, I commend him for holding back when he needed it, because the drumming on the other songs were still great and on Heretic he had really fast drumming too.

@@neigtchur George and Pete Sandoval are tops in death metal, I would also add flo mournier from crypto pay to that list of being the greatest drummers in death metal...their styles are what death metal is all about.
I have to agree. Like the current Singer sounds great. I really don't want to bash on him. But the multiple styles Dallas has, accents and the way his pronunciation and tone were really made Nile stand out. That's one of the reasons I truly fell in love with this band. Those whom the gods detest is my first album. Man.... I've never had metal on that caliber before... No one sounded like that, especially in my music collection. Lol but I'm looking forward to hearing the rest of this album. But I think I'm going to take a look into their older stuff big time. It kinda reminds me of what happened with Skeletonwitch.
@@taylorkelly2585 not nearly as good as the original singer. His voice is great but, it sounds more like the common extream vocalist. This guy is fantastic and I'm still going to and want to hear the rest of the album for sure. Looking forward to it too.

Nile is one of those bands that stay consistently good. There isn't one Nile album I dislike. There might be one or two albums I rank as "slightly less awesome than the rest" but I still consider them to be very good albums. And listening to this it is clear that this one has potential to be among the best. Thank you for your continued consistent existence Nile! \m/ Pre-ordered!
I am simply dumbfounded how Nile can still sound so energized, progressive and downright incredible this far along in their highly respectable career. The new lineup is perhaps the strongest yet. What a gift that we all may partake in a new Nile masterwork. They sound born again, in feces, but not the four apes kind. I'm a little high as well. This comment took me 2.5 hours to write.
I can't wait for this! Been a Nile fan since Amongst the Catacombs and they've been one of the few bands I listined to for such a long time that has stayed consistent.
Woah! That's quite a while then to be able to still enjoy this band XD, usually guys get bored of a band 5 albums in some even less. Again I agree, I love everything they did, but it's nice to see.
Any drummer reading this, plese come to the drum camp in Palazzuolo sul Senio (Italy), of which George Kollias is an organizer! This year's edition will be held from July 18th to 21st in the beautiful mountain resort of Palazzuolo sul Senio... Do join in on this amazing experience!
My 'Not Being Hung Upside Down on a Stake in the Underworld and Made to Eat Feces by the Four Apes' shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my shirt.
@@benmech i guess you too, noticing how you are harsh to people that you don't know. Basically you have just a screen to save you from getting covered with words. Why you have to be so harsh?
Karl Sanders is a few months older than James Hetfield. Just shows you the excesses of these huge bands take a toll on the body and mind. George Kollias is not far off 50 either and he's the top death metal drummer for many a year. These guys are paving the way for extreme music to be played far beyond youth.
Nile...favorite DM band of all time. But wtf is up with the MIX? The drums and vocals overpower the guitars 50% of the time. Hard to swallow this is the same team that gave us the clarity on Vile Nilotic Rites. Still pre-ordered....just not remotely blown away yet.
The sound is great….I stopped listening to them since Those Whom the Gods Detest. But now I ordered the album…sounds very good mixed. Still miss Dallas toler Wade.
My heroes. ❤ much love and respect boys! George you're a monster. I love the new vocal direction you guys are taking in the last few albums. I wasn't a huge fan at first but its really grown on me. Its refreshing. Love you guys!
Privilege to see them at some venue in North Carolina with Suffocation and some band I can’t remember. Saw that 2025 kicks off in Nashville! Looking forward to it!
Love this!! Nice to hear George using his toms. That's precisely what I've been thinking for a few albums now. More variation in cymbals and much more toms in the mix! Stoked to hear something more organic in this album!!
Man.... I love this I really do and I can't wait to hear the rest of the album... But it feels so strange not hearing the Duo Vocals. It really helped make Nile for so unique compared to other bands. This current Singer sounds great but he doesn't really do anything new. Maybe it's because I'm too used to their older albums and this is taking time to fit together. I can't say I like the Vocals but he is REALLY good. Just doesn't feel too... Nile if that makes sense. Looking forward to getting the rest of the album though. :3
I appreciate Brian's effort on this album and the previous one, but please bring back the cavernous and low growls.. since Those Whom The Gods Detest they've been keeping this singing style.. everytime a new album is dropped i'm hoping to be disappointed and so to think otherwise, but.. what the hell is that 2:49 Take for example Dying Fetus. If you change Gallagher's brutal growl, the band loses half of the power it has. Same applies here. Since 4 albums now.
Yep, I completely agree with you. The accent of the vocals now lay on the high screams instead of the low growls. I can't seem to get into any album later than Gods Detest. I have tried many times, and will try many more times but disappointment hits every time. However, Nile is and will still be my favourite band ever.
Wasn't it Karl who always did those? Being able to do vocals of that style takes a pretty significant amount of core strength and endurance. He is getting a bit older, he might not be able to do them as consistently live so they aren't utilizing them in the studio as often either.
This is good Nile. I heard someone critique it, reminiscing over a time with Dallas Wade fronting the band - it honestly made me feel like whoever said this was a casual. Although I agree Nile's best days were with Dallas, their worst days were as well. The last album and from what I hear from this one, was the departure of Dallas, and their best work since TWTGD.
This is sick!!! Is this the first time Nile has had a dedicated vocalist that doesn't play an instrument? Interesting.. I'd love to see what their live show is like now, I haven't seen them since Dallas left.
@@johnathanlifsey9649 Wait what? Damn :( EDIT: It's actually Brian who's not touring anymore. I think it's cos he wants to focus on raising his child :)
@@johnathanlifsey9649bro, he’s not touring? Ugh that sucks, but very, very understandable. At least he’s on the record doing vocals, so maybe in time, he’ll be back on stage with the rest of the guys
The fact that George has been able to play at this level for so long (while even pushing the boundaries in some instances) is genuinely impressive.
It is amazing. He answered a q&a at an event about how his body has been while playing this style. A lot of tendonitis throughout the limbs, but he loves what he does, so he keeps pushing. Hell, isn't Pete Sandoval in his 60s or so. He doesn't play as fast as George, but it's extreme drumming. I could only imagine what his body is dealing with.
