NILE + Hideous Divinity + Pestifer + Intrepid at The Fleece Bristol
NILE + Hideous Divinity + Pestifer + Intrepid will be performing at The Fleece in Bristol on Thursday 5th September 2024.
Combining the extreme speed and nihilism of technical death metal with the mysticism and ancient melodies of Middle Eastern music, Nile emerged in the mid-’90s with a powerful and idiosyncratic sound that helped set them apart from their heavy metal contemporaries. Beginning with 1998’s Amongst the Catacombs of Nephren-Ka, Nile honed their self-proclaimed “Ithyphallic Metal,” releasing a string of successful outings like Those Whom the Gods Detest (2009), At the Gate of Sethu (2012), and Vile Nilotic Rights (2019), that looked to the seemingly disparate worlds of Egyptian history and H.P. Lovecraft, among others, for inspiration.
