The European leg of the Faces Of Death Tour, by Rivers Of Nihil will take place in November and December 2022. Quick update on the line-up with Fallujah, Inferi and Harbinger joining the trek alongside Allegaeon.
For various reasons Archspire, Black Crown Initiate and To The Grave had to drop off the tour. Avocado booking worked hard on saving the tour and everyone is excited to welcome Fallujah, Inferi and Harbinger onto the tour! Previously purchased tickets will remain valid.
There has been a venue change for Birmingham (to Asylum) and Paris (to Backstage By The Mill). For further information and ticket links click here.

Rivers Of Nihil will be touring in support of their newest full-length “The Work” that was released last Fall through Metal Blade Records. The band has 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’ve forged further into new territory, delivering an album that’s as cerebral as it is visceral, and that covers a staggering sonic range, definitively placing them in a category of their own. Inarguably a dense, heavy collection, The Work is far too dynamic to be considered a solely metal record and there is a genuine warmth that shows through, particularly tracks like “Wait” and the gorgeous “Maybe One Day”. Additionally, the band has incorporated far more clean vocals alongside the screaming that tears through many of the record’s heavier tracks. Courtesy of their friend Zach Strouse, saxophone once again adds extra layers of atmosphere to the collection, utilizing baritone, soprano, and alto saxes to great effect.
Preview and purchase “The Work” here.
