DUDE, so glad you decided to check this one out. Like others have said, their albums are amazing. Definitely one of my favorite bands out today. You should check out some Allegaeon, they have a heavy classical style guitar influence.
This band never disappoints. This song as well as many others provoke so many emotions. Where Owls Know My Name album really spoke to me before and after my grandmother passed because I was listening to it during that time and it really helped me to process what was happening and comforted me while listening
Please do Archspire next! Along with Rivers of Nihil, they may be the most exciting band in metal today. It may not be the most "enjoyable" listen on the first go (even took me a while to get into it) but you'll definitely find loads of unique stuff to break down. Bleed the Future is my favourite of their new songs, so that's my pick :)
I would really love to see some Archspire as well, but I think Involuntary doppelganger is the better track to listen to. thats the classic at this point and has more production tricks
@@Earthgazer You're right, it's like the river....my phonetics are off cause I'm probably just too used to over annunciating it for all my friends who say "Neehill" or "Nil"
Everyone talks up their recent stuff, but still check out their early work. Fron their first album: Rain eater, soil and seed, and airless and great! Especially since they carry over motifs from the first album in to the next
Defo worth checking all their albums, listening to the evolution of this band has been one of the greatest journeys from any band I've ever had the pleasure of joining along in.
I met the vocalist in The Netherlands 2 years ago, he's a super cool dude. What I love about Rivers of Nihil is the audible bass and the Prog intertwined with their original Technical Death Metal sound. This song especially gives me really big Opeth vibes
The vocalist is partially deaf, so the presence of bass is likely in part to help him keep rhythm alongside drums. I think this lends itself to the interesting vocal melodies he lays down.
Think of Nihil like Nihilism (similar to Nile). The cool thing about this song is the album basically builds up to it. So it’s a half hour of a journey to this moment.
Hmm. Now I'm curious. Most philosophers I've ever heard pronounce it 'nee-hill' or 'nee-yill' when discussing the concept. Very different to when discussing the entire philosophy of nihil-ism. But I'm American, so now I'm wondering where it's common to pronounce it like "Nile".
@@Earthgazer I’m American too and I’ve only heard it pronounced like nai-uh-lism. But I also don’t interact with many philosophers so it may just be a common error. I’m pretty sure the band pronounces it that way though
What's absolutely mind-blowing is when you find out the singer is hard of hearing. Imagine how difficult it must be to be as good as he is with everything going on and only really registering the lower frequencies. Phenomenal stuff.
I just wanna say you’re the best kind of endearing person and it makes me very happy every time I see you freak out over music I love even though it might not be what you choose to listen to regularly. I really love your appreciation for everything for what it is🖤
This is a concept album to a degree of which I've not experienced in a LONG time. It's completely engulfing and an emotional rollercoaster. Glad you are highlighting this band and album Also if you're interested in where it goes at the end there it's the song MORE?
believe it or not, this is not a concept album in the sense of having one story. They announced that this album, instead of following one concept (i know its rivers, but its true), it would be many different stories revolving around a central mood or emotion. that being said, fantastic album and highly recommend to anyone.
you already probably know of Be'lakor. for me "Vessels" is that "completely engulfing and an emotional rollercoaster". i can hardly wait for the new release at the end of this month
Be'lakor is some of the best melodeath in recent years. Can't wait as well. I suppose I didn't look into the whole deal with Work, but more that the album has recurrent themes and stuff. The whole album has these peaks and valleys that are super engaging. I love it. It's not an easy listen, but I love it.
Yo Geebz, I just started listening to this band for real today and came to see your two videos for them. Gotta agree with you on the dynamic wild journey these songs are, and the saxophone is the cherry on top. I should have given this band a listen earlier.
See them live while you can, best small venue show I've been to ever. They're in Europe rn selling out left and right. Cheers for them, their entire last 2 albums are flawless and vastly different.
So fucking STOKED that you’re checking out Rivers. Found them a few years ago and their progression over each album is PHENOMENAL. Thank you for taking the time to listen to and dissect this.
Congratulations on 200K subs! Quality content, would love to see you wrap up the year with a top ten/honourable mentions of your favourite breakdowns of the year
The fact that this song is really the first time you get the emotional release from the first few songs of the album is insane to me. The held whole note sections during the....Chorus?....feel SO earned after song after song of dank, dark, damp, oppressive emotions.
Love this band and this album. As many times as I've listened to it over the past couple of weeks there is still so much I havent picked up on. The vinyl just showed up a couple of days ago so I need to eat a couple gummies, kick back and really Focus on it.
Loved the reaction! It's always cool hearing you dissect these songs. Also I'd highly recommend checking out the band Kardashev, especially their songs Snow-sleep or Heartache, some of the most beautiful metal I've heard.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this band. I love the wave of these atmospheric ethereal and chill metal bands you can eat edibles and enjoy going on a trip listening to bands like this, Kardashev, and The Contortionist.
Geebz you have really sucked me in. Soon as I get a job I'm joining your Patreon. Keep doing what you do! We are close in age and love that you have turned me in to so much music I've never heard, and helping me feel it in a different way!
Glad to see another reaction to Rivers of Nihil!!! Another one of my favorite bands(Trivium) just came out with a new album(In the Court of the Dragon). Definitely think you should check that out!
One of the best death metal / prog metal bands out there. Love that you're so open to all genres! Off topic: Where do I suggest songs? And also: Have you considered Beyerdynamic DT 770 headphones?
Damn was gonna say you need to check out Rivers of Nihil songs like this one and the Owls title track since they need wayyyy more recognition. Too good too be as unknown as they are. But of course, you being the kingest have already listened and reviewed. Much love man🙏
Doesn't seem like a lot of reaction channels have wandered into doom/stoner metal yet in any significant quantity. I can't wait for them to crack open those fantastic genres.
Live down the street from Deathwish Roastery - Maybe have to send ya some! couple fun facts Drummer and bassist sing all the clean vocals on this album The lead singers is actually hearing impaired Absolute legends - I just hope they know how good they are
Whoa, New to me, Rivers of Nihil has an Alcest vibe IMHO... but more 'industrial'. This is a very good thing. Thanks for the video, as always a good watch!
Ok, it's official. Metal + saxophone = awesome. Something about the blend of melodic tones from the sax and the heavy rhythmic percussion produces such an interesting mix, when done the right way. TesseracT have a 3 part song "Of Reality" (off their second album) which ends with great sax feature (part 3 is called Calabi-Yau). Who do I have to petition for more saxophone in metal?
Nothing will top their previous album (Owls) for me, but this album still has some fantastic tracks and this song is the best of them. It was a pleasure to listen to your thoughts as usual.
I think I may agree. Owls is just so good and is the one of theirs I’ve listened to the most. I’m hoping this one gets better each listen and competes with it though. Lots to uncover I think.
Awesome album, these guys are the real deal! Dying to hear a mix/production review of humanity’s last breath’s track earthless, and you will have to check out a new Vildjharta track too!
Didn't know what to expect from this. Pleasantly surprised. Would love to see reactions to anything from In Flames. Almost 30 years worth of music to dig into. You can hear the evolution of their music as you go through the albums. Recommended songs (for me personally) are "Take This Life", "Pinball Map", "Come Clarity" or "Stay With Me". A very small taste at the exquisite banquet of In Flames!
Archspire - Drone Corpse Aviator has a video, it is also the newest single out of the new album coming out ! Crazier than Golden Mouth of Ruin ! Love the videos :D
Great decomposition, I'd love to see you do a Native Construct song, I'd recommend Passage or Chromatic abberation. I think it would make for an interesting video ✌
Aloha good morning Mr decomposer did I ever tell ya how much I appreciate you and thanks to you you've opened my mind to a lot of new music I've never heard of and now most of those artist I have on my playlist .it's also help me becoming a better musician and has inspire me to write music of my own being influenced by listening to you and reacting to your videos thanks again ahola
Their newest album, which this song is from, has been a really cool, surprisingly tranquil listen. Rivers of Nihil is probably one of the most eclectic death metal bands out there.
@@terran236 I'd say BTBAM and Rivers of Nihil are both comparably eclectic. There aren't really any bands that sound quite like either of them. Also, the drumming on Fix the Error from BTBAM's newest album... fucking legendary (also, apologies... didn't realize I was writing this from a different account. This account and the Horse-Leaf's Cabbage are both me)
Seconding an ARCHSPIRE recommendation. They're releasing their new album at the end of this month and they have 3 new music videos out, Golden Mouth of Ruin, The Future Is Bled and Drone Corpse Aviator. Any three will work but you gotta check them out!!!!
Just saw them for the 2nd time last Sunday, they didn't play this song but a few off the new album but as always a great band, where owls know my name was a game changer for the tech/prog metal Scene
Love your vids Geebz! I recommend the band Morphide, probably their song Akeneo, or their song Aftermath would be great. They're a very new band, but they also have done covers on TH-cam. I love their original music, and I think everyone here would love it too!
This entire album is one of the best things I’ve heard in years. It’s so unique and heavy and emotional. I’m going through a divorce and it’s right on time. I ball my eyes out through every listen. Be sure to check out the rest.
Yes!!!!! The whole album is fiiree 🔥 .....check out "shadow of intent - from ruin...we rise" or "the ocean- devonian:nascent live performance" thanks for do what your doing man 👌
Great analysis...For some reason in this album which I enjoy btw, i have to say though that I struggle a bit with some production choices, especially drums sound, which sound for me a bit synthetic/plastic/tight/restrained/compressed (? not sure of the technical term, sorry) compared to previous album....At times I really see here for the first time another band's influence, MECHINA, for which I also have a big respect for their versatility & fusion of genres but also their unique "space saga" ambiances they know how to create...(check out for instance the 10 first minutes of the album "As Embers Turns to Dust"). Cheers !
Thanks for reminding me that these guys have a new album. It's still weird to me that it works so well in an extreme metal band, but that saxophone was absolutely incredible. Stoked to listen to the rest of the album.
Napalm Death had a sax on the Everyday Pox track. Sounded cool. And a Belgian stoner metal band had one as well on one of their tracks (Drums are for Parades - Opium Den Idiot Check). Go listen to them if you fancy it, they are great tunes
@GhostShelter Completely agree! The Work has a couple songs that are almost on the same level, but nothing really touches Subtle Change. It instantly struck a chord with me the first time I listened through WOKMN.
DUDE, so glad you decided to check this one out. Like others have said, their albums are amazing. Definitely one of my favorite bands out today. You should check out some Allegaeon, they have a heavy classical style guitar influence.
Allegaeon- Grey Matter Mechanics!!!!
This song makes me cry every time. Thankfully my now wife, came into my life. I was very close to becoming that whisper in the void.
Definitely need to do The Silent Life by Rivers of Nihil. It's so groovy and has a SAX SOLO!!!
I love me some Silent Life, great song!
Did you try searching for it? I thought he already did that one?
@@LEKLukeKnight I didn't find it
No he did WOKMN
@@LEKLukeKnight i think he did where owls know my name?
This band never disappoints. This song as well as many others provoke so many emotions. Where Owls Know My Name album really spoke to me before and after my grandmother passed because I was listening to it during that time and it really helped me to process what was happening and comforted me while listening
Please do Archspire next! Along with Rivers of Nihil, they may be the most exciting band in metal today.
It may not be the most "enjoyable" listen on the first go (even took me a while to get into it) but you'll definitely find loads of unique stuff to break down. Bleed the Future is my favourite of their new songs, so that's my pick :)
YES! He gotta react to bleed the future! Its probably my favorite song from them and it has a lyric video aswell
Don’t forget Fallujah in the modern prog-death trifecta!
Yes, Archspire is a necessity!
I would really love to see some Archspire as well, but I think Involuntary doppelganger is the better track to listen to. thats the classic at this point and has more production tricks
I'd be leaning towards golden mouth of ruin. That has some incredible musicianship.
that intro had me hanging on by a thread then punched me right in the jaw, holy shit. this album just shot right to the top of my listen list
This album is great, but also check out their album before this - Where Owls Know My Name (if you're not already a fan)
Dude I just audibly gasped when I saw you did this song. I cannot stop listening to this song. It's god tier.
hands down one of the best songs ive heard in a very long time
Yes!!!! This whole album is a modern prog metal masterpiece. Thank you for checking this out! Btw, it's "Nigh-hill" as in nihilism :)
That's actually not how nihil is pronounced 😄
@@Earthgazer You're right, it's like the river....my phonetics are off cause I'm probably just too used to over annunciating it for all my friends who say "Neehill" or "Nil"
@@lostmotel6156 yeah, nee-hill or neeyull are the common pronunciations amongst philosophers
I just discovered this band myself. I've been enjoying the hell out of them.
Everyone talks up their recent stuff, but still check out their early work. Fron their first album: Rain eater, soil and seed, and airless and great! Especially since they carry over motifs from the first album in to the next
@@TylerJMacDonald I've been doing a deep dive into all of their work. All of it incredible s far.
some of the most thoughtful music being written in that area right now. Them and Car Bomb need a class at Cornell
I am surprised nobody recommend the previous album yet exalting on how godly good the thing is.
Defo worth checking all their albums, listening to the evolution of this band has been one of the greatest journeys from any band I've ever had the pleasure of joining along in.
I met the vocalist in The Netherlands 2 years ago, he's a super cool dude. What I love about Rivers of Nihil is the audible bass and the Prog intertwined with their original Technical Death Metal sound. This song especially gives me really big Opeth vibes
That's what I like about them. It's not just straight Death Metal. Check out Beyond Creation. The fretless bass sounds so good.
The vocalist is partially deaf, so the presence of bass is likely in part to help him keep rhythm alongside drums. I think this lends itself to the interesting vocal melodies he lays down.
@@plantdesigns7889 I've known Beyond Creation for years. I love them
Curious, is your profile pic an homage to leviathan? Or am I just seeing what I want to see hah
@@NecroSage it's a dripping moon from Oceano!
Think of Nihil like Nihilism (similar to Nile).

@@mercyfulnate yes, that's how nihilism is pronounced. The band just pronounces "nihil" differently to philosophers.
@@Earthgazer I've literally never heard of a single human being ever pronouncing it like that. That's odd!

Wow, first time I have listened to these guys! I love it when I get to hear new bands to me. Thanks for another great video
Check out their songs Where Owls Know My Name and The Silent Life.
@@plantdesigns7889 will do thanks

Song of 2021 IMHO.
Up there no doubt. The whole album is great, shatters expectations
This song is an absolute journey from probably one of the most exciting bands to come about in a long time.
Wow I've been waiting for a breakdown of something from their new album! You've gotta do some more Rivers of Nihil tracks in the future!
Back to the heavy stuff!!! LETS GO!
Nice! discovering the song with you :) Thanks for getting back to them!

Rivers is the Pink Floyd of metal and it is such a blessing to witness.
This is one of the best songs from this monster album. Might be AOTY for me. Fuck 2021 has been a great year for music!
That’s cause 2020 locked them in their basement with nothing to do but think practice and write…lol
Saw this band live a few days ago, they put on a great show and the songs sounded even better live.
You can't hide, nah you can't deny, you're a bassman. Wait till you hit that stoner metal, you're gonna be on cloud 10.
Clutch is one hell of a stoner band
Get on the sludge metal train too!
Doesn't seem like a lot of reaction channels have wandered into doom/stoner metal yet in any significant quantity. I can't wait for them to crack open those fantastic genres.
Shrinebuilder
Intronaut
Live down the street from Deathwish Roastery - Maybe have to send ya some! couple fun facts

Saw these guys live a few weeks ago. Had goosebumps the entire set! Definitely recommend checking out the new album!
Awesome album, these guys are the real deal! Dying to hear a mix/production review of humanity’s last breath’s track earthless, and you will have to check out a new Vildjharta track too!
Agreed! Would want a track other than earthless for once but still love that track to death
Vildhjarta would be awesome to see him do again! The track traces or All these feelings would be great!

It's such a good "sadness" album. Like, I don't exclusively listen to it when I'm feeling down, but when I am, it hits so hard in the best way.
Yes!!!!! The whole album is fiiree 🔥 .....check out "shadow of intent - from ruin...we rise" or "the ocean- devonian:nascent live performance" thanks for do what your doing man 👌
Drone corpse aviator next!!!!!
Keep Saxophones Great, LFG!!!
Pronounced Nile like the river but in reference to nihilism

Upvote for Spectre by Radiohead
Can you do VOLA - 24 Light Years? Such an amazing track
I think you're about ready for Mayonaise by smashing pumpkins. I'd love to hear your thoughts on that one.
Back when I played WoW that was my guild master's favorite song.
More Rivers of Nihil please. Where Owls Know My Name is a great song. or The Silent Life. or A Home. all of it. just do all of it. lol
@GhostShelter Subtle Change is probably my favorite RoN song! The sax solo in that one just hits different than all the rest 😌
@GhostShelter Completely agree! The Work has a couple songs that are almost on the same level, but nothing really touches Subtle Change. It instantly struck a chord with me the first time I listened through WOKMN.
He already did Where Owls Know My Name.
