5 stars After The Reality Dream trilogy Riverside tried to make sth new and fresh. Anno Domini High Definition is definetly sth new. It is most energetic and heavy album by Riverside so far. It seems like they were finally free to play whatever they wanted to. Duda's experiments with voice can be suprising, singing "a capella" in Hyperactive, Michał Łapaj uses Hammond a lot bringing climate of 70s to this album. Guitar work is finally varied, and Piotr Grudzinski created some finest riffs in his career. We can recognize that drummer, Kozieradzki, used to play in metal bands becouse of blastbeat, and more energetic playing than on previous albums.They suprise us with using trumpets - Egoist Hedonist, Theremin in Hybrid Times and by many electronics sounds and samples. ADHD is definetly the most adult, progressive and energetic realese by those guys. Each musican is in top form, and I am sure that they reached their potential by that 3 months of recording album. Becouse of complex structure of each songs it is no an easy album, but I guarantee that after several listening this music will grow, and it won't be easy to get bored. Biggest step forward in their career!
