Nile's ninth album, Vile Nilotic Rites, is coming Nov. 1 and they've just debuted the title track, which is the second new single to be released.

While Nile's modus operandi is menacing speeds and marathon blast beats, they've always known how to pump the brakes and deliver devastating mid-tempo death metal anthems. "Vile Nilotic Rites" is one of these songs which lunges with massive, mammoth riffs. There's still some blasts to be found, but this track is all about that slow-grinding churn.

"'Vile Nilotic Rites' was a depraved yet fun song to write and record. Now that we are playing it live on tour, we are for sure enjoying sharing the song onstage with metal fans," begins founder Karl Sanders.

"'Vile' is a catchy track with a lot of variety in the tempo; from crushing heavy, to irresistible mid-paced groove, to uptempo blasting. It also has a creeping, heavy evil vibe yet with just the right amount of technicality to be an undeniably fun blast to play," he continued, adding, "The lyrics are some of my favorite on the album as are the vocal performances, par excellence from Brian and Brad, as well as some extremely brutal yet tasteful and enjoyable drum work from George. Vile was one of the first songs written for this album so we have certainly impatiently waited a long time to be able to bring this track to metal fans."

Read the lyrics to "Vile Nilotic Rites" and listen to the song below.

He worships dogs and reptiles

He blackens his eyes with soot like a prostitute

He dances and plays the cymbals in vile nilotic rites I am asked if he has gone mad

If he has been bewitched, having coupled with a sorceress

For he has become soulless, degenerate

In thrall to the detestable and unclean antedeluvial rites of the phallus

More ancient than even the river Nile

Groveling in a world of numbing debauchery

Sodded, addicted, degraded

Fallen into depravity

He has sown the seeds of madness

Consumed by irrationality

Decadence, deviancy and excess

What one worships, one becomes Whores, hermaphrodites, lickspittles

The corrupt and the drunken are all that is left of him

For he is wretched

Consumed by lascivious and abominable orgies of flesh and blood

Infected by impious acts

A slave to the immortal passions

That contaminate and defile the soul

Inflicted with incurable decay

Staggering witlessly to his doom

What one worships, one becomes

What one worships, one becomes

What one worships
