The Origins Of An Incredible Band
Joel Israel | Cedar City, UT United States | 10/03/2007
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This recent re-release compilation of Nile's two earliest recordings, "Festivals Of Atonement" and "Ramses, Bringer Of War" proves that this band has always been something special in a crowded metal scene. "Festivals" in particular, is just as eerie and crushing as anything they have done since, and is worth picking up just for "The Black Hand Of Set", "Divine Intent" and "Wrought", but the addition of the rest is even better. My only complaint is that about halfway through the kick drum seems to be suddenly very "clicky" and obtrusive, indicating that the production of these early discs was not quite as good as subsequent Nile releases....but any Nile fan should check this out!"
Stands up as foundation of the NILE
Phil Jorgensen | Humboldt Co, USA | 03/09/2010
(5 out of 5 stars)

"After becoming overwhelmingly intrigued by Nile with Black Seeds and Catacombs, I had to know where this was coming from progressively so I have bought and studied Niles albums in chronological order. ITB is definitely more droning and chugging than the following works (a few re-recorded tracks share with Catacombs) but helped me comprehend the later works well. I love all the Nile albums, but do not see their earlier works as sub par at all, as can some times be the case. it's slower on average but there is really good stuff here for any NIle fan."
