That's a shame. I wasn't enthralled with their releases after Piotr's death, but they were still solid at minimum. Band had a really long streak of consistently great albums all the way from founding until at least Piotr's passing.

Damn, that's a massive blow. He was basically the most crucial member alongside Piotr... and I think he's right, there's pretty much no way the band could carry on past his departure. Well, at least they leave behind a great discog

I've said it elsewhere: I'm so sad about this. Love Riverside, love Mariusz's composing abilities. At least we still have Lunatic Soul.

Horrible news man!! Sadly it’ll probably be difficult for the band to really continue in any meaningful way without Mariusz since he was such a big part of the band’s sound. It seems he had a falling out with one member, which could either be Piotr or Michal. Really sucks

Upset about this ngl

Not happy about this one.

This is a real shame, and it doesn't sound like an amicable split either. The band have struggled to continue after Piotr Grudziński's death so I can't see them continuing at all without Mariusz.

as much as i really like him as a musician it's deeply conceited to leave a band and insist there's no way they can function without him. he should have said nothing about the band continuing and allowed them to make their own decision.

Yeah we were probably lucky to get those post-Piotr albums, honestly.

actually listening to riverside while reading this. i havent been too invested in them for about ten years now, so i guess the band is over now

" At least we still have Lunatic Soul."

not going anywhere m8


yeah last album was...uninspired. Can't say I have enjoyed much LS either lately, so unsure all in all

I guess now is the time I finally check out Lunatic Soul. Been meaning to for a long time.

I actually only know him for Lunatic Soul so might be time to check out his actual band. Or what was

"as much as i really like him as a musician it's deeply conceited to leave a band and insist there's no way they can function without him. he should have said nothing about the band continuing and allowed them to make their own decision."

I can agree with this--saying that was unnecessary. While yes, it will be difficult to replace him, it's not impossible; a statement like that just makes him look like a prick. He normally seems pretty laid back so it kinda comes from left field.
