Music is not the Olympics, indeed. That being said, I don't find DT pretentious at all (if anything, they're a bit corny imo haha) and I appreciate them as instrumentalists & the fact that they seem to be having a blast, honestly. They just enjoy it! :) I think they do what they love Now I'm not sure what you think of when you say 'other prog groups', but if you mean the djenty or 'technical' inclined, I tend to agree that there's a sterile approach sometimes I do think that Riverside is very well balanced and musical... they have a sense for things, for quantity, for timing, for feeling

Un groupe que je suis depuis leur début. Toujours impressionné par la qualité des musiciens et de leur musique. Leur nouveau guitariste est excellent. De Québec sous la neige.

Was in the crowd, the show was recorded in Kino Siska, October 2019 (Ljubljana, Slovenia), small venue with amazing sound. Was a great performance. They´ve kept the promise to come back, so tonight will be their 2nd concert for Slovenian fans, same venue - same sound! \m/

Hey I'm a Polish and I feel weird writing comment in English under the video of Polish band. But weird is good and I feel satisfied with that ;). Eventually we have just a few world famous bands. But doesn't mean that we don't have more bands on world level. Big respect for three Riverside members. Despite unimaginable hard period in their lives which they had to face, decided to try go on. Without heart of a band and a dear friend. But life is so brutal. I think that some artist can create ambitious works only in concrete group. They are still a great musicians who will even improve through future career I suppose. Their new guitarst is also talented. With past in interesting neo prog rock band Quidam. You can definitely hear a lot of great sounds in their repertuar. That type of music in Poland was really on good level years back. Anyway... But after 4 years of second life syndrom (So fucking ironic this life...still my very favourite track from Riverside... ) with new music, I feel that some element of greatness has been irretrievably lost. But maybe it is just a changing of my receive to music in general. Maybe one day they prove to me that they could create even more interesting songs. :) I wish to Riverside best luck in musical industry.

Can't really compare Riverside to DT imo. DT might be the one of the most technically skillfull group of people I've ever seen, yet somehow live it doesn't show. The fact that their concerts are expensive af and usually with huge crowds(I prefer the smaller stages), don't help either. Riverside on the other side are way less well-known, and probably technically down in skill compared to DT(honestly tho, who isn't), yet Riverside's live concerts are astonishing, mind-blowing, INSANELY good. The live sound of Riverside is amazing and the experience is so much more impactfull than going to a DT-concert, although I loved DT before I loved Riverside. Their concerts are also more than double as cheap, and they play the small stages since they're way less well-known, which makes for an intimate and awesome cozy vibe. DT isn't a live band. Riverside is. DT are true and worthy kings, but I'll take Riverside over DT 10 out of 10 times, especially live.

They are amazing, hope to see them live one day
