03. Cradle To The Grave (feat. Alyssa White Gluz) There aren't many prominent musicians that would need much encouragement to make a solo record. SIMONE SIMONS, on the other hand, has been biding her time. After over 20 years and eight increasingly complex and grandiose albums as frontwoman with EPICA, the Dutch icon has little to prove, particularly within the symphonic metal realm. But with a suitable gap in the schedule, and the perfect songwriting partner in the form of Arjen Lucassen (AYREON), Simons has finally taken the plunge.

02. Chapter For Not Being Hung Upside Down On A Stake In The Underworld And Made To Eat Feces By The Four Apes. Every time NILE release an album, it feels like something monumental is taking place. More than 30 years after first forming, and 26 years since the release of their debut album, Karl Sanders's crew are one of the biggest and most revered bands in death metal. From early classics like "Black Seeds Of Vengeance" and "In Their Darkened Shrines", through to more recent efforts like 2015's excellent "What Should Not Be Unearthed", NILE have established and nurtured a strong and powerful identity that has somehow retained a degree of mystique, even in this age of remorseless oversharing. Their tenth full-length studio record, "The Underworld Awaits Us All" has an aura of invincibility, even before it starts. When it does burst into life, it soon becomes apparent that NILE are on terrifyingly good form.
