Nile

Death metal
Death metal

Nile is a Death metal act. Their sound grew out of Six Feet Under, God Dethroned, Belphegor, Butchered at Birth and Grave. Those roots explain a lot about how Nile arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Hate Eternal, Cryptopsy, Morbid Angel, Malevolent Creation and Monstrosity, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Kittie, Whitechapel, Chthonic, Job for a Cowboy and Fleshcrawl, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 22 connections around Nile, reaching back through Six Feet Under and forward to Kittie.
