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 its 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 Headbangers Ball Blog.
Before you watch it, read what frontman Karl 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.”
