Traditionally, a self-titled record can signal a return to basics and\/or a fresh beginning, and in 10 powerful songs, it’s clear that both those factors are in play. Founding bassist Adam Biggs became the band’s new lead vocalist\/bassist in 2023; the same year marked the appearance of additional guitarist Andy Thomas (ex-Black Crown Initiate), whose vocals also play prominently on Rivers of Nihil. Producers Carson Slovak and Grant McFarland at Atrium Audio captured the new dynamics across more than 50 minutes of music.\u003cbr\u003eOn June 15, 2023, the band released a new single, \"The Sub-Orbital Blues,” the first track with Biggs handling lead vocals (following the 2022 departure of singer Jake Dieffenbach, and also their first featuring Thomas). A second single, \"Hellbirds,\" dropped on October 19 of that year. On April 29, 2024, the band released the cut \"Criminals\" and an accompanying music video. Both “Criminals” and “The Sub-Orbital Blues” appear on Rivers of Nihil.\u003cbr\u003eThe new album’s first single of 2025, “House of Light,” is a track the band believes “encapsulates the nature of what it is that we do perfectly while offering a different perspective on the sound with the new lineup,” explains founding member\/guitarist Brody Uttley, who also plays piano and does the programming in the band. “Everything that our fans have come to love about our sound is demonstrated in this song with the new addition of Andy singing and Biggs on main vocals. It has the riffs, it has the big chorus, it has the prog, it has the solos, it has the sax. Just a real classic example of what we do as a band in 2025.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklist:\u003cbr\u003eThe Sub-Orbital Blues\u003cbr\u003eDustman\u003cbr\u003eCriminals\u003cbr\u003eDespair Church\u003cbr\u003eWater \u0026amp; Time\u003cbr\u003eHouse of Light\u003cbr\u003eEvidence\u003cbr\u003eAmerican Death\u003cbr\u003eThe Logical End\u003cbr\u003eRivers of Nihil\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Season of Mist - International","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53385316401495,"sku":"P-163342-","price":15.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/6500\/8471\/files\/Rivers-Of-Nihil-Rivers-Of-Nihil-CD-DIGIPAK-163342-1-1739175599.jpg?v=1778265798","url":"https:\/\/shop.season-of-mist.com\/products\/rivers-of-nihil-rivers-of-nihil-cd-digipak","provider":"Season of Mist - International","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
