In contrast to the majority of Polish bands, playing concerts outside the country, Riverside gentlemen do not have clubs playing in Polish. They are enthusiastically welcomed by the audience not with our country having nothing in common, as are the glowing reviews of their subsequent records in the foreign press and music sites. And some of these publications have already had time to gather funds. After three large discs included in the Reality Dream trilogy , the band recorded their acclaimed album Anno Domini High Definition , who at the end of June 2009 was the biggest selling album in Poland. Riverside completes an EP discography Voices In My Head and, which is rare on the Polish market, a few singles to promote the first 3 discs of the team and also containing unreleased tracks on large plates. To this one should mention the concert album, Reality Dream , available in total sales in the DVD format, as well as on CD and vinyl in limited editions, sold at gigs.

The same is done Two panels Riverside studio and the other two are reportedly waiting in the coming months. The team works closely with his fan club, tossing from time to time the members of a tasty morsel in the form of live bootleg, free entry to a concert or a free, limited edition releases.
