I am just discovering these dudes. Where Owls Know My Name was my introduction, and it was awesome. This band kicks ass!!
I’m a year behind you!
I found them back when owls came out and loved it, but I never looked into there catalog for some reason.
shame on me.
You ain't whistlin dixy pardner
@@dagan5698 You really should if you haven’t by this point. All their stuff is phenomenal, and I’ve actually always been kind of partial towards their first full-length. Probably because I discovered them right as it was coming out. I’d recommend “Rain Eater” or “Mechanical Trees” but you can’t go wrong no matter what. It’s just banger after banger with these guys
This is the best beer commercial I've ever seen
Beer zaebis
There's enough metal in this song to rebuild the Twin Towers
ha!
you win im done haha
My comment of the day
Dude...not only is this song the best thing since sliced bread, your comment buttered it with Land O' Lakes and donkey punched that shit to my noggin! Well done, sir! You now own the net!
the top comments are always regurgitated dead jokes it seems.
I listen to a lot of metal. All kinds of metal... AND THIS IS SOME HIGH QUALITY METAL FOLKS!!!!
Correct
not incorrect
I don’t care what anyone says, tech-death done properly is one of the most therapeutic things ever. It’s almost like an out-of-body experience 🤙
God damn Metal Blade is on such a fucking roll lately
right, been thinking the same thing, a lot of badass music coming from MB recently!
+Archbauer agreed!
+Archbauer Hell yeah dude…. Have you heard Allegaeon?
Adam Coffman Fuck yea man, got all their albums and saw them live!
Metal Blade and Ear Ache have some fucking star material right now. Both are turning out death and grindcore music that is progressively refreshing.
Apparently, he is the sun.
+Avatar Korra And the moon. Well, sort of.
I think he means that his head is as bright and shiny as the sun. Man, you really have to look deep into these lyrics to find their true meaning.
That's nice and all but do Owls know his name?!
and the moon as well...imagine that.
I see you very often in the comment section of metal music!
I’m ashamed that it has taken me this long to discover this band, Why aren’t they in the forefront of the metal scene? The level of musicianship in this band is incredible. They should be spoken in the same breath as bands like Tool.
You've got it backwards. Tool should be spoken of in the same breath as Rivers of Nihil.
@@d0ct0rvenkman anyone else smell smoke? 'cause that shit burnt gawd damn
Okay kiddos settle down
This is one of those bands where they never made a bad album
Gotta love the bass!
Just discovered this band after what seems like forever looking for bands that don't sound like everything else.
Adam Sandoval same
Want some suggestions for masterpiece?
Same.
try black crown initiate if you want something like rivers but better.
Give Allegaeon a try then, not sure how much the "doesn't sound like everything else" thing holds up, but Bleed From Within, Bury Tomorrow, Countless Skies, Fallujah, ERRA, Polyphia, Periphery, Tramaine (Heavy Balance), Crusade, and Demons and Wizards are all pretty damn good.
"I AM THE SUN
I AM THE MOON, WELL SORT OF"
+derpik fucking hell i cant unhear it
I thought he ate the moon risotto
It’s so weird that a TH-cam comment is what is cemented in my brain 2 or 3 years later.
Idk i heard empty your skin i am ready
@@myquest666420 still in my head 5 years later. Couldn’t remember the real words because I say “we’ll sort of” now.
My god....have heard of these guys in passing but this is the first time im actually listening to them. This shit CRUSHES
It is fucking hysterical how silly these guys are and yet how brutal they sound. They make some of the funniest videos and put absolutely genius music behind them, and I'm so here for it 🤘
This whole video setup like it's gonna be some serious thing, dude putting on his serious orange gear....but SPOILERS! The irony of the juxtaposition is amazing! Also, definitely some high quality metal. Love that solo right before the orange reveal! \m/
that emding is...BRILLIANT!
ToxicTV fuck yeah man, the drumming especially.
Hugh Jass
Not sure, but thinking he's referring to the last scene, where the vocalist, who keeps on going "I am Sun!", is shown wearing a sun costume.
Cyber Scum I think you're right. When I first saw this video I saw that comment and was looking for a huge ending (the ending is fantastic) but it's similar to the rest of the song so I wouldn't have associated it with brilliant until I saw the sun costume. Then it made sense :P
"A prisoner puts on his uniform, downs a last drink before his exec....wait what the fuck?"
- Me when I first watched this video
Those sudden tempo changes and breaks is what I love!, reminds me of a few songs from Decapitated-Nihility
Your absolutely right , all good modern death metal has to be influenced by that record
listening this album right now thanks for the recommendation
I had a chat with the singer after the obscura/revocation/beyond creation/rivers gig on sunday. what a lovely chap.
I've gotten in so much better shape since 2015 all thanks to how epic and energizing Monarchy was.
I dont see any lyrics, so:
He stares at the sky
Humbled by what he does not know
One looming eye
Its secrets still beyond his hold
"Why do you choose to taunt us so?"
"What earthly discourse could you know"
Fruitlessly reap and sow
Anointed in the sand below
Conduit; the sun speaks to you
In consummate form this child now is imbued
Collective incumbent, the way revealed to you
This congregation folds upon the grains that you choose
Born of the sand
The scraping masses of life
Born of the sun
May they be lifted on high
Born of the blood
Their sacrifice to the circles, when they are brought to the stone
Those born of blood, sand, stone
They have no right
Transcending what is known
I am the light
I am the sun
And I am the moon once told of
Empty my skin, I am ready
I am the sun
I am the moon
Empty your skin
I am ready
Born in the ash and then lead to the surface
Our day will never end
Born in the ash and then lead to the surface
The monarchy of the sun
Born in the ash and then lead to the surface
The sun will never set
Born in the ash and then lead to the surface
I am the way and the truth
Born of the sand
The scraping masses of life
Born of the sun
May they be lifted on high
Born of the blood
Their sacrifice to the circles, when they are brought to the stone.
I am the sun
And I am the moon once told of
Empty my skin, I am ready... for aeons to come
I am the sun
I am the moon
I love how deep these lyrics are yet the video is just him dressing up as a sun with a beer in hand lmao
The song of Rkard, The Sun Priest/Warrior of Athas.
Saw these dudes last night supporting Hate Eternal... What fucking amazing musicians.
+Ryan O'Toole I was there bro, in Cinci?
Nah man, this was last november. I'm in Cali bro.
The entire video I was waiting for something gnarly to happen, and then I lol'd. Really hard.
I don't think these guys can disappoint me. I dig anything with atmosphere to it, but I think these guys and Fallujah do it the best.
+Beards Are Metal so weird I never realized they sound like fallujah
Justin McNeil Yea I know. It's probably because they don't outright sound like each other, they just have that atmosphere. It's one of my favorite elements in death metal
+Beards Are Metal I've always thought of these guys as Fallujah without the weird production. Still absolutely love both, too.
If you want another band exactly like this, check out Black Crown Initiate.
Nathan Campbell Oh I know Black Crown Initiate. I love 'em. I've seen them 4 times, have both releases, and like 3 shirts haha.
Beards Are Metal Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude. That's legit. They've never come to NM that I know of, and it makes me so mad.
that bass is just majestic
I can say it without hesitation. Monarchy is best death metal album in 2015!!!
I have been drifting away from listening to heavy music but it is bands like this that keep me coming back.
these three songs that they have released are something best that happened this year.they have rapidly grown and matured since the last album,that is starting to sound as ambient tech death.can't wait 21st to come
Man I feel so lucky knowing this band exist's they fucking rule.
Metal Blade is just capturing all the beasts lately.
These guys are grade A musicians.
Everyone support Rivers of Nihil and buy their album the first week! First week sales really helps them out! Then chooch some wheelchair weed.
Christian Ellington Already pre-ordered one of the CD + T-shirt bundles! I can't wait for this album, seriously. They deserve all the support too.
Whomever comes up with the ideas for your music videos, give them a raise! Fucking love it.
praise the sun
\[T]/
Cant get enough of this song
a whole fucking song about the vocalist getting dressed, starting with his pants. AMAZING!!
was this all just for a beer commercial
Play this song at weddings
Beautiful, as well as ferocious and Brutal.
I swear, one day I will found a nation and this will be our anthem.
\m/
Skrillex on drums? Nice
Like Skrillex could even dream of even understanding what goes into making this music, let alone playing it.
+GG Allin Skrillex used to be a vocalist in some band, i don't know if he was good i just know he was there.
+Devin Meehan from First to last
He was a part of Korn.
Saw these guys with Beneath the massace in a small bar in NJ when they were just starting out. Great stuff here for sure.
Solaire of astora likes this.
yesssss hahaha so funny

Top quality comment
\[T]/
HOW THE FUCK HAVE I MISSED OUT ON THIS BAND?!? HOLY SHIT!
Cannot wait for this album to be released.
fallujah, rivers of nihil, and beyond creation??????? tour together pls
This sounds great, I need to listen to more from these guys!
It's interesting to see Jonathan Davis on drums in a technical death metal band.
This song is one of those you lay down and relax to.
This is badass!
Why doesnt this have 3 million views?! WTF
damn he drank that beer, i was like : I need one right now.
Me too. I want to fill my fridge with a good pale ale and listen to this album on repeat.
That was my first thought too: "Damn that beer looks mighty tasty!" These guys are by far my new favorite band. I see a lot of comparison to Fallujah on the comments. Are they just as good as these guys? If so...sign me the fuck up!
i miss this tbh i want them to do a sequel to this or something lol
Shit,thats Brilliant!
Land shark! Thats some good ass beer man! Im about to go get a case now!
That moment you become so epic the Earth becomes your amp.
First time I heard of these guys was when I saw them live as an opening band and they slapped
I'm Glad to see that Jakes band is getting more popular, were both from reading, my brother and him are are close friends this town isn't the greatest, but he's making a name for himself and YOU GUYS GOD DAMN KILL IT, good luck to you guys and I'll keep listening to your music, and Jake mikky said what's up
I figured I would be sick of more bands adding such audible bass guitar to their sound. I was wrong, this song rules.
The ending blew my mind!
Such a game changer!
Wow!
As a Dark Souls III player who routinely gets into brutal 1v1's with his friend, and jams to this song as sunbros...this song hits completely different.
Saw these guys about a month ago in Montreal. They are monster musicians! |m/
I remember playing with these guys
Theres a new metal added to the Elements chart R°N.
Yesss!
Thats why the sell out every show 🤘
Masterpiece of a composition tbh
God this is good !
They remind me of Abiotic(bass-wise), Fallujah & Nile combined together. So technically heavy, though. I like it.
As for the music vid, I was confused at what's going on until I saw the ending. They really took the lyric "I Am A Sun" literally, LOL!
I just don't understand the people who gives this a thumbs-down. Why did you even bother watching if it was aweful? You know you can avoid negative things by just not watching, ignoring? No need to spread your insecurities thru your negativity. Just keep it sweet and simple.
burningmisery I agree why put thumbs down. This song is sinisterly brutal. I've been planning on getting a few of Rivers Of Nihil albums. God it's been two years since Sand Baptism has been released and this is the first time in thirteen years that I have tore some shit up!
unsurprisingly people have opposing opinons.
Well you kinda have to hear it to say if you like it or not.. just sayin.smh
burningmisery how the fuck does somebody know they don’t like it till they watch it dipshit! I didn’t know I wasn’t gonna like this crap till I watched and listened to a few of their songs, fucking horrible😖 video, song, singer all of it crap. INFANT ANNIHILATOR BITCHES🤘🖕🤘🖕
I lived 45 minutes from these guys.... My whole life. Funny shit
Incredible.
153 people that listened to this song have no soul...
Summer is here.
absoluty brutal 😍
I'm not sure what exactly I just watched. But the music was good.
Love it
awesome tune!
mind blown!
so fucking EPIC.
Good job guys.
BRAVO!!!
rare thing seeing a band with a lack of tattoos . best album of the year easily .
That bass!!
YES YES YESSSSSSSSS
saw these guys play last night in Chicago...they fucking killed it
🌞
wow
Was waiting for something hella bad ass while jammin' to the music.
Not what I was expecting.
Their singer is a goof ball.
Riffin away all damn day
Best Sumerby commercial ever!
Quality stuff guys.
This is great!
that's awesome
I just discovered these guys thanks to the black dahlia murder "up from the sewers" tour.. great show great crowd.. Chicago 2021
