US metallers Nile have issued the following update:

"World Management would like to announce that Nile will be entering the studio for their forthcoming second Album on Nuclear Blast on June 8th at Mana Recording in Tampa Florida.

The band will be working again with Neil Kernon as producer and have added Erik Rutan to the team as engineer at his studio. The band will record at several locations throughout June and July. A mid October 2009 release is being planed world wide on Nuclear Blast.

Nile will then tour Europe in November of 2009 and January / February 2010 in North America, followed by tours in Australia, South America, Japan, Pacific Rim, Mexico, Central America and India. Stay tuned for tour news and further updates to be added."

Neil Kernon comments: "I'm really thrilled to be working on another album with Nile. This will be the third album we've done together, and we have a great working relationship in the studio that has only improved with time. I am certain that this record will be our strongest team effort yet. It will also be a lot of fun to meet and work with Erik Rutan, who is going to be involved with the engineering end of things. I've been a fan of Erik's work in Hate Eternal and also his studio work for some time. He has a strong work ethic, and I'm very optimistic that this collaboration will be fruitful and inspiring for all of us."

Erik Rutan adds: "Having Nile, one of the best bands in the genre, recording with me at Mana is a tremendous honor. I very much look forward to this collaboration with Nile and Neil Kernon to make an amazing death metal classic!"

NuclearBlast Records have released previews of all the songs from Nile's upcoming album "Ithyphallic" on their website.

From the NuclearBlast website:

"With "Ithyphallic", the highly acclaimed US Death Metal outfit has created the most technical and extreme album of all time! Blending their well-known styles of complexe riffing, violent blasts, mean growls from the vault, razor sharp hooks and Egyptian-influenced craftsmanship, NILE and producer Neil Kernon (JUDAS PRIEST, NEVERMORE) reinvented themselves with an even tighter and more intense atmosphere than ever before. Songs like the thrilling 'Papyrus Containing The Spell To Preserve Its Possessor Against Attacks From He Who Is In The Water' (which will be featured with a video clip as well), the devastating 'As He Creates So He Destoys' or the haunting 'Language Of The Shadows' outline NILE's supremacy within the present Death Metal scene and prove to be some of the best extreme Metal songs ever been written. Watch out for the guys playing the famous Ozzfest Tour 2007, as NILE and "Ithyphallic" will hit you like a sandstorm from the depths of Sahara!"

The following announcements were posted on Nile's official myspace by guitarist Karl Sanders:

"We are currently finishing the mixes on the new Nile album entitled "Ithyphallic", our first album for Nuclear Blast. So far we have been nothing but thrilled to work with the entire cast at NB, they have treated us exceptionally well and have given the band a ferocious and inspirational new lease on life. Dallas, George and I are convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt that this new record contains our best material yet, and Neil Kernon is working overtime to ensure that every single blasphemous note is heard in all its primal savagery.

There are 9 songs and one short acoustic piece, 2 of which are epic length songs, yet overall a wide range of tempos, some doomy, exotic elements as well as some unbelievably fast and catchy Metal.

A few song titles: "Language Of The Shadows", "Even The Gods Must Die", "The Infinity Of Stone", "Ithyphallic" and "Papyrii Containg The Spell To Preserve Its Possessor Against Attacks From He Who Is In The Water".

We are, as could be expected, very much looking forward to our upcoming Australian Tour, our last tip down under went exceptionally well and we cant wait to play again for the rabid Aussie Metal fans. We will also indeed be bringing the Nile Brand of Ithyphallic Metal to the uninitiated masses at the summer Ozzfest, and, quite welcomely, playing our own Nile headlining shows for the off - Ozz days.
We are also anxious for the European Nile Fall tour that is in the works, where we will finally be able to play a nice long Nile set covering a wide range of material from all our albums."
