The reigning kings of technical, historically-themed brutality, NILE, have revealed the track listing and artwork for their latest state-of-the-death-metal-art release Those Whom the Gods Detest. Produced and mixed by Neil Kernon (NEVERMORE, CANNIBALCORPSE, QUEENSRYCHE), along with a stellar drum production job by Erik Rutan (CANNIBAL CORPSE, VITALREMAINS, GOATWHORE), Those Whom the Gods Detest features the bands strongest production and perhaps their best material to date!

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.
