NILE - "Behind The Scenes" On New Video; Footage Available
December 12, 2007, 16 years ago
Headbanger's Blog reports:
"On Thursday, we’ll post the world premiere of the new NILE video for the ridiculously titled but face-shredding song “Papyrus Containing The Spell To Preserve It's Possessor From Attacks Against He Who Is In The Water.”
But right now, we have another exclusive for y’all — a Nile “Making The Video” clip shot specifically for the Headbanger's Ball Blog.
Before you watch it, read what frontman Carl Sanders told Revolver about the song: “When I saw this in an obscure chapter of The Book of the Dead, I was like, ‘Jesus Christ, that’s a cool song title.’ The original title was twice as long. It’s an ancient Egyptian spell for protection against crocodiles when they attack the boat. I laughed because I pictured this crocodile attacking, and this poor guy has to rifle through his stuff, find the right chapter in his papyrus and start saying the spell. No way! He’d be croc bait by then.”
Now here’s “The Making of “Papyrus Containing the Spell to Preserve its Possessor From Attacks Against he Who is in the Water.”
Check out the footage at Headbanger's Blog (may not be available to non-US residents).
