Nile (US), Hate Eternal (US)

Two years after their last studio album 'Ithyphallic', mighty US-American technical death metal masters Nile are finally back with new and exciting material – 'Those Whom The Gods Detest' is a landmark release in the field of all things brutal yet technically refined.

This album serves up a massive death metal onslaught featuring all the trademarks of the band – relentless brutality, Egyptian mythology, Middle Eastern interludes and incredible guitar duels and will show all youngsters and newcomers just who is the leader of the pack. Nile return to Australia to devastate the hordes of extreme metal fans and deliver us a true death metal knockout blow.

Hate Eternal Started in 1997 by Erik Rutan (of Morbid Angel and Ripping Corpse fame) and quickly became one of the most talked about extreme metal bands on the scene, due to the band’s ability to create exceptional albums, tons of touring, and live shows that left fans hungering for more.

'Fury and Flames', the bands’ fourth studio album, marks the start of a new chapter in Hate Eternal’s already illustrious career. Upon the first spin, listeners will immediately be able to tell that 'Fury and Flames' is the band’s most diverse and heavy chaotic and emotionally fuelled record to date. Five years on Hate Eternal explode back into Australia to remind us all just what this band is capable of.

Note: Abigail Williams is no longer playing this show and the venue has changed to The Basement, Lower Greys Ave, Auckland CBD - use to be Silo Theatre.
