Nile news
"Karl, Dallas, and Jon are currently deeply involved with writing new material for the followup to 2002's heralded "In Their Darkened Shrines", an early 2005 release date via Relapse Records is expected."
Taken on Nile's official website.
There, John. I'm sure that makes you happy.

The "early 2005" part excites me.

I am currently salivating like an African Hyena whose mucky paws have just stumbled across a particularly succulant morsal of decaying carrion!
My word, this is good news!

I wonder who they'll get to drum. Laureano left, or so I'm lead to believe. Which is quite tragic.

I'm sure we can expect nothing less than excellence...(concerning the album and the possibility of a new drummer)...what a succulant morsal of decaying carrion indeed!!  |

I've seen this doing the rounds on the Nile boards, however I've not seen it specifically expressed by anyone associated with Nile that Tony has left. I have to admit though that it is highly likely that he has judging by some of Karl's posts. It'll be really interesting to see who they announce as the new drummer - I can't think of many that are a) available and b) talented enough to fill Tony's considerable boots.

I'm not as up on Nile news and lineup changes as some, as I could never really get into them (and yes, I'm open to suggestions if you think this or that song could make me immediately change my mind and take up Ancient Egyptian history with a fiery passion that burns through my loins), but didn't they replace their drummer on their last record as well?

So far they've had a different drummer on every major album...but Tony was the best, in my opinion and I'm sure the opinion of many others...

Yeah, I've been told he fits in best with the way the band plays, beyond being a fantastic drummer.
As for if they're of Egyptian descent: I don't actually know, but based on their names and the fact that 95% of the people I know with a thing for Ancient Egypt are whiter than a picket fence, I'd guess they weren't. Though I've known Egyptians with names that wouldn't give a good hint to their heritage, and as I said I don't really know, so it wouldn't be a huge surprise if I turned out to be wrong.

Listenable Records somehow managed to print up all the copies of the DVD.. wrong. They would only play in a computer. So, massive delay yet again. |

Disregard that. Apparently, it has been released. Also, it has been sold out. No more copies being printed until 2005. |

I think Tim Yeung is filling in on the skins which will be HIGHLY electrifying. As far as Nile being Egyptian it's my understanding that they are all from South Carloina, Karl Sanders just is really into Egyptian and Sumerian mythology, most don't recognize the Sumerian and just clump it together with the Egyptian but he sings more about Sumerian myth. Karl has studied them both extensively and just knows these things.
