Rapid Eye Movement - CD

Riverside: Rapid Eye Movement versie op CD in standaard editie. Deze specifieke uitgave werd uitgebracht in Duitsland bij uitgeverij Inside Out Music op 5. maart 2021.

The musicians started working on their third album at the end of 2006. In March, during a concert in Zabrze, they were able to play early versions of some new songs. From time to time various news about the record reached the fans. In January it was revealed that the last part of the "Reality Dream" trilogy will be called "Rapid Eye Movement". The first recording session took place in March, and as Mittloff explains, it was during this session that the dream part of the record was recorded. The heavier part was recorded in April. The album was recorded in Serakos studio in Warsaw and Toya studio in Lodz. "Rapid Eye Movement" is a continuation of the band's musical and lyrical journey known from the previous two albums, but that doesn't mean there are no changes. The biggest improvement has been the sound of the record. The musicians agreed that the album's production is better than ever. The most noticeable musical difference is in Grudzień's guitar playing. He uses his instrument more for heavy riffs than for solos and pretty melodies. Another novelty was the introduction of some psychedelic and trance elements. The acoustic guitar also returned to popularity, appearing in two tracks. (riversideband. pl)
