The reigning kings of technical, historically-themed brutality, Nile, have announced a listening party and signing session for their new album 'Those Whom the Gods Detest' to be held on Friday November 6th at 7pm at Earshot Records (www.earshot.com) in Greenville South Carolina. Hear 'Those Whom the Gods Detest' in its entirety and buy the album and have Karl Sanders, Dallas Toler-Wade and George Kollias sign it right then and there. Former members and contributors Jon Vesano, Mike Breazeale, Pete Hammoura and touring bassist Chris Lollis will also be on hand to celebrate. The event is open to the public and can be attended by showing up at the following address 1418 Laurens Rd. Greenville, SC 29607 on the before mentioned date and time.

Nile’s latest state-of-the-death-metal-art release 'Those Whom the Gods Detest'. Produced and mixed by Neil Kernon (Nevermore, Cannibal Corpse, Queensryche), along with a stellar drum recording job by Erik Rutan (Cannibal Corpse, Vital Remains, Goatwhore), 'Those Whom the Gods Detest' features the bands strongest production and perhaps their best material to date. The album can be pre-ordered (with or without an exclusive t-shirt design) HERE.

The cover artwork was brought to realization this time around by Michal "Xaay" Loranc, whom Karl Sander’s had previously worked with on his 2nd solo record Saurian Exorcisms.
