Rivers of Nihil’s “Sand Baptism” Video Has the Best Twist Ending Since The Usual Suspects

I don’t wanna give anything away, so I’m just gonna say this: you MUST watch Rivers of Nihil’s new video for their song “Sand Baptism.” You are going to be confused for a portion of its running time, but I promise you, all questions will be answered by the end, and in a manner which you could never possibly foresee. The song rules so hard that the video could have just been the band rocking out in the field (and there are some really epic flyover shots of them doing so), but the narrative, and eventual reveal, makes the clip an instant classic. Enjoy:

Bravo, gentlemen. Br… fucking… vo.

“Sand Baptism” appears on RoN’s beast of a new album, Monarchy, which comes out August 21 on Metal Blade. Pre-order it here! The band will play two record release shows around the time Monarchy comes out… they totally wreck live, so make sure you go see ’em!
