First came across the Polish band Riverside 7-8 years ago while surfing the Internet for Progressive Rock bands that I'd never heard of. However, despite immediately liking Riverside, I only first got round to seeing them on their 10th Anniversary tour at Warsaw Stodoła 2-3 years ago (this was absolutely fantastic with the British band The Pineapple Thief being on before them).
Sunday night was extra special as the band were mainly showcasing the material from their recently released 'Shrine of the New Generation Slaves' album which is one of the best albums I've heard in a long, long time. For me, Riverside just seem to be getting better and better with each album they release, 'Shrine of the New Generation Slaves' being their fifth album in all. Sunday night's show was a good balance of tracks from the latter album such as 'Escalator Slave' and 'The Depth of Self-Delusion' and older tracks like 'Living in the Past'; 'Panic Room'; and 'Conceiving You'.
