We have been quietly working away, earnestly writing new songs for the next NILE album. It will be NILE’s 10th record, and we are determined to make it especially killer for the fans.”
 
Drummer George Kollias adds:
“Absolutely thrilled that we are a part of Napalm Records and super excited for the new album that’s coming soon, first one with our new label! I feel this is a very crucial moment in our career and I would like to thank Napalm Records for their trust in us – I know we will do some incredible music together! NILE has always kept raising the bar without compromising a single thing and this is what we will do for the next album too. Working on our new album as we speak, and we are hungry as hell to deliver our very best yet!”
 
Sebastian Muench, Napalm Records A&R, says:
“For me, NILE has always been the most amazing technical death metal band in the world. Starting with Amongst the Catacombs of Nephren-Ka in 1998, NILE have released nine “instant classic” albums! Welcome to the Napalm family!”        

In other news, NILE recently announced that they will release a new anthology guitar tablature book via Sheet Happens on September 30, 2021. The book is available to order now. For more information, visit www.sheethappenspublishing.com/artists/nile.
 
Karl Sanders says about the tablature book:
“Also coming out soon is a retrospective NILE anthology guitar tab book that was months in the making. We had a blast putting it together with the Sheet Happens people, who really do incredible work presenting totally on point metal guitar tabs. Accurate NILE tabs are something NILE fans have been asking me for many years, and I felt strongly about only putting out a NILE tab book if we could get it 100% authentic. And these tabs are the real thing. I sincerely am happy to share this book, and the music within, with NILE fans and guitarists alike.”

INSIDIOUS DISEASE – Ft. Current/Former Members Of DIMMU BORGIR, MORGOTH, NILE, SUSPERIA And NAPALM DEATH – Join Nuclear Blast And Release First New Track “Enforcers Of The Plague”

Norwegian death metal conglomerate INSIDIOUS DISEASE, featuring current/former members from DIMMU BORGIR, MORGOTH, NILE, SUSPERIA and NAPALM DEATH, have joined Nuclear Blast and plan to release their awaited second full-length album, “After Death”, in the near future.

Today, the band has revealed the album artwork by Dan Seagrave and released a new track aptly titled ‘Enforcers of the Plague’. Watch the visualizer for the track now below.

“Groovy Greetings! Due to some obvious recent events, we’re a bit behind schedule on the new INSIDIOUS DISEASE album,” says founding guitarist Silenoz. “But here’s a taste of matured, chunky flesh for you to sink your teeth into! What could go better with the current times than a cut like ‘Enforcers of The Plague’?! Furthermore we’re very proud to announce our new home with Nuclear Blast Records and while we await the album release date to be announced in the near future, make sure to check in on our anti-social platforms to stay up to date on more incoming news! We will resume with further brutality when this virus shit is dealt with!”

Sonically inducing a depraved and morbid condition of the mind, INSIDIOUS DISEASE will return in 2020 to present their second full length album. Freshly signed to Nuclear Blast Records, the band convenes to create a modern venture into classic death metal. Still in the early stages of existence with only their debut album “Shadowcast (2010)” preceding, INSIDIOUS DISEASE are ripe with a hellish energy that seeks to sear its way across the universe of heavy metal. “It’s not supposed to be re-inventing the wheel or anything, it’s just about finding a good groove that we feel comfortable with,” explains Silenoz.

Line-up
Marc Grewe – Vocals
Sven Atle Kopperud (a.k.a. Silenoz) (Dimmu Borgir) – guitar
Terje Andersen (a.k.a. Cyrus) (Susperia) – guitar
Shane Embury (Napalm Death) – Bass
Tony Laureano (Devil’s Highway) – drums

Additional details about the new record will be announced in the coming months.
