Aircrafting, Riverwild, Bound & Buried

"Deadbeat Dad Rock"


Riverwild is a Five-piece from Brooklyn, New York. Their musical influences are as diverse as the sounds of the Catholic liturgy, the racket of cult worship services, late night F.M. radio and the music found on stolen cassette tapes.The Songs are rooted in the melodic energy of Springsteen's New Jersey and the raw, "heart-on-sleeve" howl of the Replacements.

The music of Riverwild is concerned with redemption either by God, substance or women and often, the confusing embrace of what feels like all three at once. The songs are about hazy moments of epiphany that occur at 3am that are equally dark and euphoric. In a spirit of defiance against this darkness, the music is anthemic and seeks to affirm the struggle to find one's own voice.
