“Not a year ago, Smertegrænsens Toldere from Denmark played at the great Get Lost Festival. I approached Mads about a release and a few days later got an email from Jakob the guitarist introducing me to his other band. The band is called Riverhead and on April 29th their second album “Cancer” will be released via Sounds of Subterrania. At first glance, Riverhead’s sound doesn’t fit into the line-up, as they combine the sound of modern hardcore and … And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead. At second glance, it’s exactly what I’ve been trying to do with the label for 25 years – create new connections, break up rigid forms, simply go different ways. Riverhead basically continue what The Pill’s sud is and if you look closely, the guitars of the Severgrooves are also in the corner. So if you need a red thread, you have it here. Either way, Riverhead will scrub your ear canals free, I’m sure.”
