Riahpstvrt, split between Italian post-rock/metal bands RIAH and POSTVORTA

Mani In Faccia Promotion is pleased to present RIAHPSTVRT, split between Italian post-rock/metal bands RIAH and POSTVORTA, to be released on March 19, 2021. The record will feature one song per band plus a collaborative suite track and is due to be released in vinyl format via Moment Of Collapse Records, Shove Records e Fresh Outbreak Records. CDs and tapes by Trepanation Recordings.

Longtime friends Riah and Postvorta had to stop their live activities due to the pandemic. In this context they decided to join their ideas in a long suite melting the two bands’ souls, dreamy and ambient the former, heavy and aggressive the latter. The result is a 16-minutes long track inspired by and illustration that then became the split cover art (by Davide Brioschi), merging post-rock, post-metal and soundtrack-like avant-garde.

The release is completed by one extra song per band that has never been released on physical format. The tracks are “Epidermide” by Riah, first recording with the band’s new three-guitar line-up, and “Hollow” by Postvorta.
