Last album was lackluster. Hope they can deliver an Onslaught this time

I am just now listening to that new track ' Call to Destruction ' and it's sound great

And I see the blade fall down upon the head of lord in heaven
And Darkness falls upon the end of history
While I drink the milk of the Black Goddess and cry over the mankind
Black Moses is my name...

Just finished listening to the entire album. Sadly I'm a bit disappointed, there's not much memorable here  It's like a watered down combination of AtGoS and TWtGD. Then again, I'm not too familiar with Nile's pre- AotW material so...

Also, I don't think I've ever seen popular band's album being rated this low this early on. Aren't the fanboys usually the first ones in?

You see, "fanboy theory" is actually crap  I will never rate high an album of my favorite band if I find it mediocre or bad, it's that simple....

I think you're forgetting about Lulu, Super Collider, whatever the last In Flames was called. They were rated really low from the start.

I like this album. It's Nile and it's decent. Although I miss the more epic parts Nile used to put in their songs. This is still a fairly technical and chaotic release which is the main reason I love Nile.

First album was the best for me, those two follow next though.

Evil To Cast Out Evil is such a good song (=
the rest kind of flew past me though
EDIT: oh wait, the last track has got some real personality in it

I tried so hard to find at least a single enjoyable part in this album but right from the start, the production irritated me and the songs flied past like bad background noise and it was a total let downer. Not even the pacing is good enough, this is played like brutal death metal instead of Nile's usual blazing fast hyper-tech death. I had high hopes for this. What a bummer.  I really hope they find their touch back.

The album was enjoyable enough but was kinda sailing past me, but I suddenly found myself paying attention to a song - turned out it was Evil To Cast Out Evil
Also, I generally found myself more engaged in the second half - not sure if the music was better or I was just more tuned into it after that song
