More detailed news as i posted above:
NILE SIGNED TO NUCLEAR BLAST Nuclear Blast is extremely proud to announce the signing of one of the most innovative Metal bands nowadays: NILE! Mixing Egyptian tunes with technical Death Metal elements and thus creating a very unique style, NILE rank among the elite of the brutal riff league, as masterpieces like "In Their Darkened Shrines" or last year's "Annihilation Of The Wicked" impressively show.
This is what Karl Sanders himself has to say about the new cooperation:
"NILE is pleased to announce the recent signing of its new record deal with Nuclear Blast. We are excited about the possibilities and potential of this new partnership with the wonderful people at Nuclear Blast. We are most certainly eagerly looking forward to working on the next NILE album and to fearlessly continue bringing NILE's unique brand of Ithyphallic Brutal Death Metal to our fans. We also would like to thank Matt and Gordon and all the team at Relapse for many years of happiness working with them, we count them as our friends and comrades still and wish them all the best."
A new album of NILE is set to show up in 2007.

"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 alll 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" "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. Ithyphallic !!

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!"
