Famous mastermind of technical death metal band Nile, Karl Sanders, has signed with Napalm Records for his “Saurian” solo project. So, the new Saurian album will be released through Napalm.
Following the first two “Saurian” project albums — “Saurian Meditation” (2004) and “Saurian Exorcisms” (2009) — Karl is ready to unleash more musical musings from inside his eclectically influenced mind. To date, each “Saurian” release has explored unique, original compositions of haunting, primarily Middle Eastern inspired music in a cinematic, ambient and mostly instrumental format — similar to the quiet, exotic interludes found on Nile albums. Providing a diverse escape for both fans of Nile and those otherwise intrigued by its world music aura, “Saurian” proves that Sanders’s universe is anything but one-dimensional.
In addition to releasing new “Saurian” music, Napalm will reissue both “Saurian Meditation” and “Saurian Exorcisms”, with more details to come.
Sanders says: “I am just thrilled to death that we have signed up with Napalm Records for the new Karl Sanders ‘Saurian’ album. I am really happy that we have found such a good home for both Nile and my ‘Saurian’ side project, as they are a great company with some sincere people. I am looking forward in earnest to working together with everyone at Napalm to bring fans the new ‘Saurian’ music, as well as re-releasing the first two ‘Saurian’ records.”
