I was jamming to Mastadon and went to the bathroom and came back to this playing and My god how did I miss this band :O This is phenomenal. Has such a Neurosis and doom metal vibe. I am sold.

[@adamlogan9500]

Its crazy that music like this is being put out, yet there are a lot of folks in our society who think music today sucks. Its sad that so many people dont know all the great music thats out there.

[@althejazzman]

It's because they still expect their favourite music to be played on the radio and TV like it was in the analogue age. Where technology evolves so do the channels of promotion.

[@MoonOvIce]

I'm 33, not old, but a lot of my contemporaries are already turning into old men that think this way, they're not willing to do...ehem...."the work" to find amazing new music such as this.

The Void from Which No Sound Escapes is probably my favorite

[@LINKENSSPHERE]

Same here, bud! Amazing structure and composition. Sounds like it could've also been on WOKMN. Love how they ended the song by bringing that beautiful chorus round again.

the owls will never know which album i like the most. its probably better 2 not compare them. they are all great. i could not stop to listen to owls back then, and i just enabled the loop for this one. a few days of coding while the subwoofer in my office blasts out 'The Work' will tell only something i know alrdy. i fkn love it. they are more than just these deathmetal guys using a sax. they create a unique atmosphere. the more i think about rivers of nihil, the more i like that the vocals are actually crisp and understandable. something i never placed very high on my agenda. another thing is the beauty of the bass. im in love with it br0000! this band will continue to grow in their own brand. love it. much love, cheers from germany

[@seniorzolo3433]

This is absolutely wonderful. My only "gripe" is that it's absolutely headphone music, best experienced by far in a quiet room. I.e. in my car I don't get the same experience at all and miss a lot. But this album's (and really this band's) biggest strengths are clearly intended for active listening on good headphones. Fortunately for home I have Sony MDR-7506 studio monitor headphones that I use; they're like my 4th pair. I'll get over it :)

I saw Rivers of Nihil live in Atlanta on September 28th. Before then, I had only heard their album, Where Owls Know My Name. Since I saw them live, I've been obsessed with Monarchy and The Work. I literally can't stop listening to these boys. Keep jamming fellas!

[@sethatkinson1534]

Great fucking show! 🤘

[@JazerMedia]

Like it or not, RoN threw caution to the wind to express themselves with this album. What a huge sonic palette, I'm privileged to have listened to them.

[@thrashaholic02]

The Tower reminds me a lot of Steven Wilson’s The Raven that Refused to Sing at least the background music anyways. Very good stuff!

[@rsbdotexe]

4 listens in. This is one of the hardest albums to describe that I've ever listened to. There is so much variety in a way that is unique to almost anything I've ever heard before. It's not like they're just throwing different sounds together like say, BTBAM, but rather that they've created a new sound in the genre. It's heavy, it's alternative, it's industrial, it's atmospheric, it's doomy, it's spacey, it's depressing, it's uplifting. While it doesn't have the sheer amount of catchy riffs of past albums, this is by far their best piece of work and deserves multiple front-to-back listens to fully digest.

[@RustyGonzo]

Well said. I've given it a good few listens now, and I keep coming back to Wait as one of the most stand out tracks for those exact reasons. So many elements that by all rights should clash just sound so great together.

[@Metal4ever69]

This comment needs to get pinned. There is a lot going on in this album. So many pieces in this album that give it an otherworldly feel to it. They cover so many different sounds that really affect the tone in each song. I will also say that albums like this definitely feel like they need to be consumed as one piece not as individual songs.

[@rsbdotexe]

@@Metal4ever69 definitely. I've tried just having random tracks from the album in a playlist and it doesn't quite do it for me.

[@christopherdouglas4472]

One of the best comments. This album is a work of art, one of the few bands around doing real concept albums, front to back is definitely the only way to listen to their albums.

[@ayo5549]

@@Metal4ever69 I'd probably say that another album kinda like what you've described, is Oh What the Future Holds by Fit For an Autopsy. Just one of those albums that you really have to listen to as a whole even though there's a bunch of singles that stand out on their own. For example, The Man That I Was Not, excellent track as a single, but quite different in a lot of ways than any other track on the album.

[@brunocosta6849]

I feel like this is the hardest listen of all their albuns, but not in a bad way. The album is depressing and bitter, as RoN intended it to be. They perfectly captured the feeling they envisioned in a masterful way. Although heavy and depressive you can sense some kind of hope and acceptance too. That ending with the throwback to Terrestria I had me in tears, with the spring birds chirping, as a new cycle begins anew. Rivers of Nihil, thank you for this experience

[@shawnlindsey6337]

Work is depressing and bitter

[@SlappsMcGee]

I agree, after the second or third time, it just “made sense” as a Rivers fan. It doesn’t click right away, but it’s crafted and arranged in a way that does connect with all Rivers fans.

[@andrewbroome5752]

This album can be interpreted in many different ways. I love it.

[@dzanci1]

This gives me the same vibes that I get from alot of old school prog rock bands (Floyd, King Crimson, Yes, Genesis) and it really shows that they went full on experimental mode. Fucking love it. 10/10.

[@testmate6681]

this album is a grower. initially none of the songs struck me as "hits", and they're not really, at least individually. but i kept coming back and have listened to the album several times from start to finish and it works so well as an entire piece

[@TheBitingBat]

It took me a good while to get into river of nihil, but man this album and where owls know my name are absolute masterpieces. The Work perfectly encapsulates the struggle between despair and hope and trying to keep going when it feels like nothing you do matters. The lyrics are beautiful and heartbreaking.

[@ASkinnyWhiteGuy]

I like to listen to this at work :)

[@user-xm4cl1re9c]

I have nothing to say except thank you. you become the best in the metal scene. I give you my vote from the hinterland of Russia.Terrestria series must live on.

[@ggvideos3736]

Totally different from WOKMN, but good all on its own. I'm kind of surprised by the "uninspired" comments, I feel this has some of their most interesting writing yet, and there's not a bad song in the whole album. It's dark, it's depressing, it's got hopelessness with a twinge of hope, and I'd go so far as to say they've continued to put out the most refreshing, unique prog that the genre really needed. I have a feeling that once the initial "It's not like the other one!" wears off, this album is going to age very well.

[@C10r0x]

I agree, I absolutely fell in love with WOKMN and listening to this might be jarring to some but I absolutely enjoy it and I still I got the goose nipples on a lot of songs. I don't follow or expect a band to sound the same. Some might not enjoy the creative direction they went in but I love the BAND. They are innovating and no one should tell them do it any different than what their heart tells them. Thus is art. Repulsive to some, beauty to the others and this album feels like THEIR art like WOKMN was in vain of being a creative art piece. It's super refreshing and feels like a new orchstrated piece.

[@ggvideos3736]

@@C10r0x Yeah, I was saying to some friends that this album isn't at all what I expected, and it's actually better for it.

[@MoSweiti666]

I don't understand how people call this uninspired. It's different, experimental and very diverse. If they recycled their previous work, they can call it that.

[@jgunner280]

Exactly. WOKMN was an incredible album, and I might even still hold it as better on initial impact, this album still goes deep and strong. Its got a sense there's still plenty to unpack, and I've already got a good few song I keep wanting to hear again the moment its over. No regrets had, and it can even stand a chance to age as more of my favorite with time.

[@cokejones]

This album is definitely more progressive and the songs have so much going on in them, that nothing really stands out. At least to me. It feels like they tried a little too much to go deep down the progressive rabbit hole that the album just sounds all over the place with no connecting flow. I don't think it's a bad album, but I'm definitely disappointed and this is coming from a guy who really enjoys some prog. I just think they're better at being more techy and adding prog elements than being more prog. I personally think their best album is Monarchy.

[@guillermolopez1377]

Oh man I can't believe I was doubting this CD at first. I forgot how good these guys are! They've surprised me with how good this switch is. This is around the 50th time I've heard it since the show I saw 3 day's before releasing. I can't stop playing it.

[@pane36]

Several months after release this is still in my regular rotation. One of my worse musical character traits is that I'm often pessimistic about future releases from artists I love. Naturally, after an absolute masterpiece of a record like Where Owls Know My Name I was worried their next record would fall short of pushing their sound forward in a pleasant way. What a fantastic time to be wrong, as they absolutely killed it everywhere on this album.

[@metronomeforchristmas1018]

I am getting a ton of Dark Tranquility Projector vibes. That and Type O Negative with a dash of Opeth, Pink Floyd and Leporous. This is truly an album that defies genre. A masterpiece that will go down in metal history.

[@thecompleation8891]

I've never listened to much of their work before and this started autoplaying after something random. This 100% feels like I'm listening to something really really musically important and I'm beyond impressed by this.

[@thefilmeffect6089]

This album is everything! It's crazy when a highly anticipated album literally gave me everything I wanted and surpassed my overhyped expectations. After Where Owls Know My Name, I was hoping this band would continue to push the progressive elements with more experimentation, more atmosphere, more cleans, more sax, more synth, and an overall more adventurous soundscape. This band delivered it all and I couldn't be happier. They even gave me the death growls I was clamoring for. This is not only one of the best albums of the year...it's Rivers Of Nihil's best album to date.

[@stevemarston2936]

I kinda wish they'd just make the sax player a full-time member.

[@thefilmeffect6089]

@@stevemarston2936 I agree, but I understand that they also don't want be known for just that. They use it really effectively on this album, but I'm really loving the industrial elements on this album more than anything. I could use some more of that in the future.

[@stevemarston2936]

@@thefilmeffect6089 That's true, but I don't think casual listeners will know the difference between a member and session player. Their video for The Void from Which No Sound Escapes does credit him separately so I suppose they're trying to make that more clear.

I appreciate that you mention the atmosphere of this album because that's the main draw for me.

The Work is indeed a welcome addition to the previous albums.

After a while the outer layer of the dick collapsed and the gross grilled cheese like substance got everywhere

[@alexfrank6534]

I drew so many comparisons to Pinks Floyd’s The Wall. I feel like there is a storyline that runs through this. I haven’t pinned it down yet. Random notes: I think that “noise” in clockwork is the train on the front cover derailing and freezing. Opening lyrics are about waiting for that train to come. It came, derailed, and froze and now they are trapped somewhere. (As i said, i don’t have the whole story figured yet) there they are forced to build a tower by a master type figure The place they are trapped is a tower that as it grows produces more prosperity for the master. They are forced to build. They try to find virtue in the work as they build, however feel resentment as well. The video of Focus is a dude in Tar in a bathtub….the next song is clean. “We will never be clean again!” Tar is hard to get off, presumably the “focus” has made the filth, which is the tar, the song clean is about realization of the filth. I believe this is the master focusing on the tower being built. Clean is about the master feeling out his moral decay. Birds to finish the album….winter is over..spring is here… they finish the “season theme” of the previous 4 records. I am thoroughly enthralled with this album. It hits all my personal likes…proggy, interpretive, non-literal, and skillful. I’d give it an 9.5 on my meter. What’s more, when i listened to Owls directly after it…it makes owls seem…simplistic in nature….which is an INSANE thing to say about one of my favorite albums of all time.

New to this band, very interesting, seems that a certain mindset and mood is required to be able to fully grasp the context of the lyrics and the music. It's my opinion that this type of album is meant to put a mirror infront of the listener, inner reflection, pretty deep, depending on your perspective and life experiences. The album art is beautiful, I can certainly relate to living in a cabin, deep in a cosmic frozen wasteland, in my mind.

Winter brings death and cold. This album matches he brutalness of the season

This is a beautiful album. You guys outdid yourselves with this. You prove to be one of my favorite bands album after album. Your songs are so dark and artfully balanced. Done fangirling now, great job gentleman.

Saw them this 9/19 at HOB SD... Great set... Awesome band!!!

[@lincolnniemi9291]

These guys Re on a higher level . I'm a musician guitarist and my hat goes off to them. Brilliant artists. I found this band totally accidentally or was it?

[@okami1061]

This album has a lot of singing on it, and I actually really appreciate that. I love both clean and harsh vocals but usually lean towards harsh a little more, this album that's not the case. These guys are trying something new, and it sounds great. My favorite song off the album right now is maybe one day. They killed it, pulled it off really well. I really respect this album, love the experimentation and creativity. Really good stuff here guys. I'm not loving it as much as the last two, but nevertheless I still love this album. Nice change of pace!

33:00 you're goddamn right i want more

[@mjolnir3504]

Its uncanny the danny elfman and pink floyd feel this album has at moments. This is instantly legendary!! Immediately classic like the Audioslave debut in the early 2000s. This album has timelessness!! Beautiful!
