What the surviving evidence establishes
George Kollias discussed Nile’s forthcoming Ithyphallic with PyroMusic in a conversation excerpted on 15 May 2007. He described a record that paired faster passages with slower, heavier tempos, presenting that range as a way to expand the songs while keeping Nile’s identity.
The interview also looked back at Annihilation of the Wicked and considered the band’s move from Relapse to Nuclear Blast. Kollias praised producer Neil Kernon’s work and the new label’s support. Those comments record the drummer’s expectations before release, rather than an independent review of the album. [1]
