Agreed.

That must be why everyone likes those songs so much.

But seriously... I mean... fucking Sarcophagus, man! How can you not bang your head when that heavy-as-a-runaway-chicken-train riff starts off with the steady double-bassing in the background, and then, slowly growling out of the murky depths of that song...

"Who dares disturb... my blissful sleep..."

I swear it gives me goosebumps every time.

Funny, Sarcophagus was the only track on that album I always skipped... I guess I'm just too true to be true 8)

Trueness beyond truth leaves lies in its wake.

Like the idea that Sarcophagus doesn't rule.

Yep, and surprisingly, The Bleeding (despite being CC's most "commercial" album) is probably the only CC worth buying IMO.

Let that be your lesson for today, Kiddies - More commercial does not necessarily mean worse.

What of Bloodthirst and The Wretched Spawn? Those are both worth buying.

Bloodthirst is especially good.

Cast Down The Heretic, Annihilation Of The Wicked,Black Seeds Of Vengeance,and Defiling The Gates Of Ishtar would have to be my favorites.

I'll be creative and say Unas again.

Ity was the song that got my into Nile and is still my favorite after inumerable listens

OldSchool · **Posted:** Tue Jan 24, 2006 2:59 pm

Unas is a cool song but it's all based on a Candlemass melodic theme. Did they credited Candlemass in any way on the album?

Not on the album, but I recall they did credit them somewhere.

Sarcofagus is pretty amazing. I can't think of a song they've done I don't like in some way.
