Nile Unveil Their Latest Touring Lineup
OCT 26TH, 2023

Egyptology-obsessed technical death metal outfit Nile have announced their latest touring lineup. Speaking via social media today, October 26th, the group spelled out the latest musicians to be joining mastermind guitarist/vocalist, etc. Karl Sanders and co. on stage.

“Nile is very happy to announce our new touring line up! Dan Vadim Von (Morbid Angel, Incantation) on bass/vocals, and Zach Jeter (Hideous Divinity, Olkoth) on guitar/vocals. Vadim and Zach are both highly experienced professionals who fit in perfectly with Nile’s fruital, highly demanding technical music.

Through the lineup changes over Nile’s career we have always strived to take these opportunities to bring Nile’s performance to a higher level, while remaining true to our own musical identity and creative vision. This is another step up for us and we welcome what Zach and Vadim are bringing to the team.

We are thrilled to continue bringing Nile’s music to our fans and look forward to seeing everyone at 70k and beyond. Get ready, it’s going to be epic!”

alright then

If only Chief would come back and rejoin.

If anything, that "Vadim" hard-on bearer has ZERO stage presence.

meh

Nile's basically just Karl and George at this point then?

Yes.

i'm surprised george has stuck around

i don't like vadim but the man is getting around it seems, good for him

karl must be in his 60s now

He is 60

Wonder who the oldest person in extreme metal is

probably someone old

it's cool that they're still going. probably easier for the guitarists than the drummers

King diamond is 67. Anyone else I can think of that's been around a long ass time is early to mid 50s.

This got me curious of who is the oldest in extreme metal and all I could really find was that all the old death metal bands have members in their 50s or early 60s. Even members of groups like Venom and Celtic Frost aren’t as old as King Diamond. I know Tipton and Halford are in their 70s but not quite in the same vein as extreme metal

My immediate thought was bands like kreator and destruction. Even those guys are like late 50s at best! I'd have put money on the fact that those guys were in their 50s in the early 2000s.

Yeah, I was thinking of tom g warrior. He is 60 now, And was only 43 when monotheist came out. Swore he was atleast 50 then

67

Nile's first album came out in 1998. Did Karl start out late or was he performing in other bands before?

The Google machine says he was in a thrash band in the 80s until he started Nile in 93.

ok then

even i knew he was in a thrash band before nile

Karl and Trey go way back. Trey was already a fan of Karl's first band. There are some pictures out there of Trey head banging at Karl's earlier gigs.

good for him, &c whatever but mostly :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

haha
