Nile's latest state-of-the-death-metal-art release

Neil Kernon (Nevermore, Cannibal Corpse, Queensryche), along with a stellar drum recording job by
Erik Rutan (Cannibal Corpse, Vital Remains, Goatwhore).

this location.
The cover artwork was brought to realization this time around by Michal "Xaay" Loranc, whom Karl Sander's had previously worked with on his 2nd solo record Saurian Exorcisms.
