RiverBurn is an experimental duo consisting of Sergei Tumanov (Animi Vultus, ..dno < sound theatre, Saliatahn) and Trishay J. Trada (Runtuh, Ksyatriya) operating across Melbourne, Australia & Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The band's core sound and concept is based around a blend of both members' traditional black metal/doom/sludge backgrounds and their desire to fuse this with contemporary sound art and experimental noise.
Their debut album '8' is based on the period of time the members were separated due to personal circumstances and adverse challenges that both members endured respectively during said time. In October 2022, both members re-united in Melbourne after 8 years of separation and recorded approximately an hour's worth of fully improvised material in a single night with no prior planning. With the exception of guitar/bass & effect overlays conducted in post, the raw capture of that night's improvisation session is the primary essence of what the band humbly offers here with their debut album '8'.
