| | Nile: Annihilation of the Wicked - PopMatters Music Review |
 | | With the arrival of Annihilation of the Wicked, one of the most hotly anticipated metal releases of 2005, Nile have not only proven that they remain the undisputed masters of American death metal, but they've managed to equal, or dare I say, even top their highly acclaimed previous record. |
 | | Death metal is one of those musical styles that isn't for everybody, as it can be an acquired taste, but everybody needs a little of everything in their record collections, and if there's one death metal album from 2005 that's definitely worth hearing, it's this one. |
 | | Nile's music is masterful, brilliantly brutal art, and Annihilation of the Wicked has exceeded everyone's lofty expectations, and is easily one of the best metal releases of the year. |
