CD Review by Adam Wujtewicz
The Rivergods are releasing their Never
Grow Old EP on January 25th.
If you’re familiar with the Rivergods then you are expecting nothing
less than the lush Pop Americana sound they’ve been cranking out for
years. If you’re unfamiliar with the
Rivergods than allow me to paint you a quick picture of this 4 song outing.
Picture this; Blood on the Tracks era
Bob Dylan and Harvest Moon era Neil Young in a poppy, less guitar centric,
package. Now remove the vocals (because
as iconic as both Bob and Neil’s voices are neither one is winning any awards
for pitch and technique) and Ben and Nancy Parent both have wonderful and easy
to listen to singing voices that work incredibly well together. It’s this 60’s folk rock and pop influence
mixed with a more modern tonality, song structure and recording techniques
gives you the groundwork of Never Grow Old. It’s channeling your forefathers through the
lens of your own life and experience.
