Reading, Pennsylvania's Rivers Of Nihil have never fit neatly into a box, but with 2018's Where Owls Know My Name, they transcended all labels applied to them. Returning in 2021 with The Work, they have forged further into new territory, delivering an album that is as cerebral as it is visceral, and that covers a staggering sonic range, definitively placing them in a category of their own.

LYRICS:
Music: Uttley
Lyrics: Biggs
I want your money, your time.
I want your patience and your pride
I’m a restless innovator
And I’m working over time
So Heaven help me
(heaven help me)
And the dollar defend me
(dollar defend me)
There is nothing you can sell me
that I ain’t got now
I can still do the work
But it gets harder, I can tell ‘ya
It ain’t perfect but it’s what we got
Is it enough for you?
Now I live among this filth
And I’m richer for it still
The rushing
And reeling
But now she’s coming home to me
The rushing
And reeling
And she’ll be perfect and so clean
Reveling
In this filth
This stain
Reveling
In this filth
Circle the drain
Circling
Heaven help
Clean this mess
Heaven help
We’ll never be clean again
Cold
A constant- steady breath
Clean- ‘til there’s nothing left
In sorrow
And shame
I whisper out a name
This anger makes it’s claim
We’ll never be clean again
Yeah we’ll never be clean
Yeah we’ll never be clean again
The rushing
And reeling
She can’t believe this feeling
We’re weightless
And tasteless
This god’s not what she made us
But now she’s coming home to me
And she’ll be perfect and so clean
Reveling
In this filth
This stain
Reveling
In this filth
Circle the drain
Circling
Heaven help
Clean this mess
Heaven help
We’ll never be clean again
