Rivers of Nihil will be touring in support of 2015's Monarchy, which was hailed as "the gold standard for extreme, technical, progressive, and passionate death metal right now"(HeavyBlogIsHeavy.com). Monarchy continues the seasonal concept that began with spring onRivers of Nihil's debut, The Conscious Seed of Light - this time, welcoming the oppressive summer heat.
Adam Biggs, who also serves as the band's primary lyricist, explains:
"The Earth has been transformed into a vast desert wasteland, where after aeons of lifelessness, new beings begin to take shape and begin their journey as shepherds of the planet. But after a while, a class system forms from a sun-worshiping religious dictatorship, and these beings start to lose their way. Only the guidance of an ancient earthly force can help them save themselves as well the planet."
