Rivers of Nihil - A Home (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

[@metalbladerecords]

LYRICS: Music: Uttley Lyrics: Biggs The day, the day that you left here A crown was placed upon me I was the king of nothing Inside this cell of skin Thoughts like ice against the wall In a home where lies taught us all Relax into that place deep within Deep in the skin, you know where you’ve been Why don’t you sing to me? A song of sanctuary You could have all you wanted Sing You could build it all from nothing sing to me You can live a life alone sanctuary But you can never call this A home that’s beneath us Somewhere the light won’t reach us The sky and the earth that birthed you Just another burden that hurts too Much to say, just separate from all these faces you cannot recall I’d do the same, and leave just how I came King for today But a fool forever Relax, and come on home You could have all you wanted Sing You could build it all from nothing Sing to me You can live a life alone Sanctuary But you can never call this home You can never call this home Relax deep within Inside this cell of skin You can never call this home King today Fool forever

[@jasonberezowski2869]

I could just talk forever about what makes this whole album work so well. I realized another thing today on another listen. Perhaps the nicest thing is nobody in the band is ever over-playing any single part, each section in each song is purely efficient. The guitars knows when to step back to let a good lyric through or let the drums hammer down and the drums know when to step back and let the richness of the song just have its moment. Really thoughtful compositions.

This album has me ADDICTED! Can't stop listening to it. Can't stop thinking about it. Thank you Rivers of Nihil! Thank You.

[@JakeArtistIV]

Favorite album of all time for me at this point, its all i listen to. and I've listened to a lot! i own almost 500 CDs and came across this band during my massive music journey back in June. hard to believe its only been 3 months since i found this band and they changed my life, this album is everything to me

[@TeutobergForestryService]

This whole album is insanely good.

100% with you, morbid corpse. Barely anything decent in the first three months, tbh. This is good though.

Mr. C Harris had no idea Be'lakor was dropping a new album. Very excited now

[@cstenzy9167]

New Panopticon as well as Ivar Bjørnson & Einar Selvik's Hugsjá as well, April is gonna be amazing

[@chrisk316]

Guys, buy their new album and support this band. The album is absolutely incredible.

[@mosh7697]

[@Metalheadmike1211]

Bought the album, a shirt and a ticket to see them on the summer slaughter tour. You don’t have to twist my arm.

[@sevenstringsyndicate6250]

[@Selkirk69]

[@the_furry_inside_your_walls639]

The clean vocals complement the harsh vocals so well, and the new drummer is absolutely kicking it! I also hope they keep the saxophone, too. That shit was what draw me into River of Nihil in the first place. Heavy with a nice little bit o' sax here and there really makes these guys stand out so well!

[@user-xd9ks4ik9s]

@@the_furry_inside_your_walls639 they said they will likely drop the sax for the next record. they liked having it but they dont wanna be the "metal with sax"-guys.

A monumental intro.

I needed to hear this. I feel like I was supposed to hear this at this moment in my live. Wish I could thank them in person

[@Nappa9000]

I remember seeing these guys in Reading back in 2011 when nobody knew who they were. Makes me really happy to see how far they've come and how much they've progressed.

[@mattbowden1981]

The new Rivers of Nihil album is fucking killer! It’s got saxophone, you guys! Saxophone!

[@directedbyxanderjones8329]

It reminds me a lot of old Atheist with the elements of jazz.

[@directedbyxanderjones8329]

The Faceless is deathcore though, these guys are tech death.

[@usernamesareforidiot]

First listen: Is that a fucking saxophone? 10th listen: Listen to that fucking saxophone!

[@andybrinks3784]

Matt Bowden I plan to order this probably next week. Alot of tracks feature sax right? I have actually felt like the sax needed to come back to music.

[@mattbowden1981]

andy brinks Yeah, man, it’s a killer album, and I agree: sax in metal is awesome. Ageless Oblivion, The Faceless, Cephalic Carnage, and lots of others have used sax well. Totally adds to the emotion of the music. Check out Tentacle Brains if you want lots of crazy saxophone.

[@cstenzy9167]

Slugdge and Rivers of Nihil, already two of the best albums of the year for sure

[@DirectorNabeshin]

cestensrud agreed, both albums are phenomenal.

[@RustyGonzo]

Oh shit! Very glad to hear other people mention the new Slugdge album. SO good.

Can we throw Zenith Passage on that?

[@johnnyrojas666]

We need a fallujah, rivers of nihil, the zenith passage and inanimate existence...

[@Draclord35]

Feels like this new album of RoN is actually what Fallujah should have aimed for. I REALLY love The Flesh Prevails but Dreamless was meh.

[@basedjorts]

Rivers of Nihil, Fallujah, Black Crown Initiate and Allegaeon would be an amazing tour.

it's almost funny how good the drummer is

[@DevilDead13820]

almost as if it was a computer doing most of the work!

[@a.f.holowaychuk1417]

Yeah, there's a few spots on the album where the kick drum editing (or timing correction, etc) is overbearing, the really fast parts at the end. It annoyed me at first (but almost ALL metal bands do it), but then I heard the live version. He's actually not that far off from being able to play it for real, live. He might have been damned close in the studio.

[@nightwishn]

how about the overly excessive snare usage and how terribly its tuned the main riff is really shit its like a snare march and vocals is ranting , would have been good if its like a mid break for 1 time through the track but as a main riff , WTF lol terrible track composure its like the whole drum line is SNAAREE

Coma Noir cannot be compared to Rivers Of Nihil, with Coma Noir you go through a whole 2 minutes of drudgery to hit a crescendo that never hits the spot, theres not alot of pay off listening to them.
