Rives - Mappa Mundi (2018) EN


The French of Rives released recently their debut EP called Mappa Mundi showing the best side of their music. This a bit darker and not very hasty guitar post-rock puts the band within the group that should draw attention of the audience in the times to come.

One could say that Rives don't try to be uniquely extravagant: their musi is some classically guitar post-rock that sometimes is calmer and charming with its beauty and sometimes reaching the heights of grandeur filling the listeners' ears with breath-taking noise. It is also worth noticing the almost ambient-like fragments in Dérive azur in which the project's music turns into calming sea of guitar drone.

Probably the most interesting track here is  based on the pulsating rhythm of piano Il n'y a pas de ciel à voir, seulement du bleu that also brings some of the heavier yet still atmospheric loudness that finishes in the album's most powerful La terre dans nos yeux. Good stuff.

Mappa Mundi costs whatever you want to pay.
