Nearly 20 years ago, Karl Sanders - the founder, principal songwriter, and driving creative force behind the exotic, devastatingly heavy stylings of American extreme death metal icons Nile - forayed from his metallic leanings to serve listeners with a transfixing dose of the cinematic, meditative, world music-driven Saurian Meditation (2004). The album explores highly original compositions of hypnotizing, primarily Middle Eastern inspired music, featuring the unique inclusion of instruments such as the balagma saz (Turkish lute) and Glissentar, often blended with dark electronic ambience and deft electric guitar work. Awaiting the Vultures, Of the Sleep of Ishtar, Luring the Doom Serpent, Contemplations of the Endless Abyss, The Elder God Shrine, Temple of Lunar Ascension, Dreaming Through the Eyes of Serpents, Whence No Traveler Returns, The Forbidden Path Across the Chasm of Self-Realization, Beckon the Sick Winds of Pestilence
