Nile interview - Karl Sanders 05 Nov 09

I remember being excited back in '97 about getting Nile's first album Amongst The Catacombs Of Nephren-Ka even before it was released. I knew it would be a masterpiece. To this day, it's still my favorite Nile album. But the newest record, Those Whom The Gods Detest, is a current favorite. I was pleased to finally speak with Karl, having long admired Nile music and his Saurian albums. The songwriting was something I chose for us to focus on. That, and Karl's killer spear that doubles as a guitar. Stagedivers beware. While TWTGD being influenced by Judas Priest was not surprising, what was surprising is which band influenced the songwriting for In Their Darkened Shrines. While My Spear Gently Impales?
