Talk:Annihilation of the Wicked

message: Should the song, "Chapter of Obeisance Before Giving Breath to the Inert One in the Presence of the Crescent Shaped Horns" be nominated for longest Nile song title and maybe one of the longest song titles in history? it is a very, very long track name CircafuciX 05:20, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That's 86 characters, not counting spaces. The longest track name I know of is "The Dark Liege of Chaos is Unleashed at the Ensorcelled Shrine of A'Zura Kai (The Splendour of a Thousand Swords Gleaming Beneath the Blazon of the Hyperborean Empire Part II)" by Bal-Sagoth which is something like 140-146 depending on what you count. If you think the "double title" is cheating, they've also got "And Lo, When the Imperium Marches Against Gul-Kothoth, Then Dark Sorceries Shall Enshroud the Citadel of the Obsidian Crown" at 102 chars :) --Asherett 08:52, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Wow. I obviously don't know whats out there then, and what kind of crazy inspiration do you need to make a song 100 characters+ long? Just wondering... It should be in the longest songs list from 50+ chars. Oh by the way, is there any album with an insanely long name? --CircafuciX 17:48, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The longest album name I can think of off the top of my head is Good Apollo, I'm Burning Star IV, Volume One: From Fear Through the Eyes of Madness, by Coheed and Cambria. ≈ The Haunted Angel 19:20, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Nominate song? 

message: The hyperlink to Sacrifice Unto Sebek states that the double-bass drum hits 265BPM. However, I listened to it in its entirety, and I didn't hear much prominent double-bass drum, and certainly nothing that fast. I did, however, notice that User-Maat-Re had an extremely fast double-bass drum section near the middle, but I'm unsure of it being as fast as 265BPM. If someone could verify this and change it to the correct song, please do so. Or I might just be deaf and unable to hear it in Sebek. Whichever. Mister Deranged 02:19, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I am not sure which text you are talking about - there is currently no link to the single Sacrifice Unto Sebek on the page. At any rate, this was probably a mistake. Annihilation of the Wicked contains some fairly extensive liner notes by Sanders. The only reference to BPM there is: "The Burning Pits of the Duat" features further collaboration with Dallas. [...] So Dallas went to work, and the infernal riffing he conjured was so overwhelming [...] that for the rest of us to play the material correctly required weeks of intense rehearsal; [...] for the drums to maintain the overwhelming 256 BPM blasting, constant quick beat changing and crazy fills. So my guess it's that someone pulled that number out of the air, vaguely remembering the "Duat" reference. These notes can be read online here --Asherett 08:52, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Correct song? 

message: I would like to see if this can be worked into the article. There seems to be many references to the book series of H.P. Lovecraft. I don't know about the books but some songs refer to them. Maybe this can be found out because some searches of parts of the songs seem to come from some ancient mythological relation. I think there should be a section concerning this in more detail. --CircafuciX (talk) 21:00, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
