RIVERSIDE
– Release new single/video “Self-Aware (Single Edit)” off upcoming
album “ID.Entity”; Announce North American Tour
Today, Poland’s pioneering and leading
Progressive Rock band RIVERSIDE are pleased to present a second single for
their upcoming studio album “ID.Entity”, to be released via InsideOutMusic on January
20th, 2023.
Check out the album’s closing
track “Self-Aware” in its ‘Single Edit’ version and with an
entertaining video clip directed by Marcin Zawadziński and Mariusz Duda

RIVERSIDE’s Mariusz Duda checked in
with the following comment about the new single:
“’Self-Aware’ is a song which summarises the entire
album, and talks about how it’s difficult these days to live in a society and
ignore all the social changes, how you can’t simply be passive, “shut yourself
off”, or “hole up deep in the woods”. We need each other in order to change
something in our lives. Not everything can be done single-handedly; “I have to
be better than others, I have to be the best” is not a good mantra. We need
cooperation to achieve goals. And it’s important that this message comes not
from a solo artist, but from a band, whose success lies mostly in cooperation
within the band and interaction with their listeners.”
“ID.Entity”,
the group’s 8th studio album was recorded and mixed in two
studios - The Boogie Town Studio in Otwock with Paweł Marciniak and in Serakos
studio in Warsaw with Magda and Robert Srzedniccy -, mastered by Robert Szydło
and produced by RIVERSIDE’s Mariusz Duda himself. The “ID.Entity” artwork was
created by Polish artist Jarek Kubicki.
A first single off “ID.Entity” was
recently released via the track "I’m Done With You",
which can also be seen here in a video-clip animated and directed by Thomas Hicks / www.thomashicks.co.uk here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3q6XJfKxKb4
RIVERSIDE also launched a
“Riverside Heavy” playlist featuring "I’m
Done With You" as well as many other heavier tracks from the band’s
comprehensive catalogue, which you can check out here:
