I’ve wanted to take a guitar lesson with Karl Sanders for a long time, and in this episode that finally happens. The conversation begins with an in-depth discussion about some of the key chords and riffs in the song "Chapter for Not Being Hung Upsidedown..." including techniques, songwriting tricks with Cubase, and Karl’s approach to creating the brutal and intricate riffs that helped define Nile’s sound. From there, we expand into a broader conversation about the band and what's on the horizon for 2026 for Nile!

If you’re a fan of Nile, technical death metal, or extreme metal guitar, this is an interview you won’t want to miss.Support the show by liking, commenting and subscribing or picking up something from the Shred Sessions Store:https://shred-sessions-shop.fourthwall.com/
