RIVERS OF NIHIL have never fit neatly into a box, but with 2018's Where Owls Know My Name, they transcended all labels applied to them. Returning in 2021 with The Work, they forged further into new territory, once again upending any expectations fans had placed on them. And now, with a new album on the horizon in 2025, following a series of singles released over the past one and a half years, the band has once again shattered the ceiling of how far they are willing to go in search of new sonic terrain.
The band spent 2021 and 2022 burning the candle at both ends with a frenzied tour schedule including headlining runs of the US and Europe, a jaunt on the European festival circuit, and two runs in support of The Black Dahlia Murder and The Contortionist in North America. But once the latter tour wrapped up, they were short a band member; for personal reasons, founding vocalist Jake Dieffenbach and the band went their separate ways.
In March 2023, RIVERS OF NIHIL wrapped up a recording session that saw the now four-piece band birth a considerable amount of new music featuring their previous bassist/backup vocalist Adam Biggs as the new lead vocalist/bassist. These sessions also marked the first recorded appearances of new guitarist Andy Thomas (Black Crown Initiate), whose vocals also play prominently in the music, as a full-time member of RIVERS OF NIHIL. Released throughout 2023 and 2024, the new singles were the first to showcase the band's new lineup in full-on collaboration, and demonstrate that while this is a new, brave sound with tons of potential, it also carries the band's classic energy.

The band recently wrapped up the recording and mastering of their fifth full-length album slated for release in 2025. The record will feature two previously released songs - "The Sub-Orbital Blues" (2023) and "Criminals" (2024) - plus eight new tracks. Stay tuned for a new single to be unveiled in early 2025.
In the meantime, RIVERS OF NIHIL have been revisiting their catalog, satiating ongoing fan requests to release instrumental versions of Where Owls Know My Name and The Work, and reissuing a remixed and remastered version of their 2010 debut EP, Hierarchy (November 8, 2024 via Metal Blade).
