Nile is a three-piece American death metal band from Greenville, South Carolina formed in 1993.[1] Since 2007, their formation consists of Karl Sanders (guitars, vocals), Dallas Toler-Wade (vocals, guitars), George Kollias (drums, percussion), and Chris Lollis (bass, vocals) (live member 2007-2010). Two years later, they followed up with Festivals of Atonement, an EP released through their own Anubis Records label.[1] In 1996, Ramses Bringer of War was released, a three-track demo with the title inspired by Gustav Holst's classical work "Mars, Bringer of War".[2] The following year, the Ramses demo was re-released by Visceral Productions on EP format.[1]
In 1998, the band signed with Relapse Records and released Nile's debut album, Amongst the Catacombs of Nephren-Ka.[1] After extensive touring to support their debut album, Relapse reissued the first two EPs in early 2000 as a compilation entitled In the Beginning, with remastered songs and new artwork.[2] This compilation was followed by two studio albums: Black Seeds of Vengeance released the same year, and 2002's In Their Darkened Shrines.[1] In 2004, Nile released their fourth studio album Annihilation of the Wicked, which debuted on Swedish charts at number 27.[3] In 2007, they released Ithyphallic, the most successful album debuting on the Billboard 200 at number 162.[4] On November 3rd 2009, the band released their 6th studio album, entitled Those Whom the Gods Detest.
