I like this record a lot. I wish it had more of their neato ambient stuff, tho.

Brad Parris is the new bass player, not guitarist. Karl and Dallas handle all guitar playing in Nile.

Basically you said something in a review that someone disagreed with, so now they feel it’s necessary to question your knowledge, background, and motivations.

Just be thankful they didn’t question your manhood and sexuality at the same time!

seconded. I gave Sethu another listen last night and had to force myself through it, it sounds thin and anemic. a lot of the songs just fly by too – though that’s probably because I’ve never been compelled to play the album over and over and learn the songs as well as I know the ones on Detest or Annihilation or even Shrines (which also has a fairly ‘thin’ sound compared to some of the later stuff, but the overall impact is still incredible).

Sales don’t equate quality. Sethu was nigh unlistenable to me and most people. Nile in general, in MY opinion have been treading water for years now. Not to say that a band can’t make an impressive career and never change their sound, but their formula has been wearing a bit thin these last few years.

Thanks for reading Mike. Best selling does not mean best. Most fans would agree that other that Those whom…. the the band has been running in place. alos, i d say most also didnt like the production of Sethu, which karl addresses here http://www.teethofthedivine.com/featured/interview-with-nile/

Before we speak down on past albums, how about we actually understand the background of them first? For instance….production issues on Sethu? You DO realize that the production was intentional on that album? And yes, that’s been said by the band on several occasions. Oh, and the last few albums have seen the band atop a shaky pedestal? How does that make sense, considering the last three have been their best selling period?

I thought Those Whom the Gods Detest was a great album from these dudes but the albums surrounding it were their weakest ever. This review has me pretty stoked to hear this, will be great if its more in line with their early works.
