New Haven-based duo Rivener’s lysergic improvisations are shape-shifting explorations of no wave, noise, and psych with elements rooted in the rockist tradition. Intrepid seekers always listening for the signs, guitarist/percussionist Paul Belbusti (Mercy Choir) and drummer Michael Kiefer (Myty Konkeror) mangle, stretch, bend, and breathe new meaning into these influences with subtle dynamic shifts, conjuring cosmic clouds of sound. This is the true freedom rock...so turn it up, man! Their debut release, Fires in Repose, is out on cassette/CD-R/DL on Twin Lakes Records now.
