The raw energy invested into their debut, self-titled EP is directly reflected on stage and on record by Rise Among Rivals, a modern rock group based out of Baltimore MD. Since forming in the summer of 2017, honest expression has been a top priority. With a focus on heavy riffs, melodic vocals, and complex dynamics, Rise Among Rivals ties together their favorite pieces from hard rock and electronic music.
The six song EP is a direct representation of the bands cohesive vision, starting with their music and stemming to their live performance. The band believes that the distance between your aspirations and reality is action, which is why they have made sure to put in the work to create a recorded and live product that holds up to the high standards of each member of the band. The EP features songs that deal with personal struggle, conflict, lust, and love. The Rise Among Rivals EP is available to stream at all major digital outlets and the band plans on continuing to provide personal, energetic live experience to fans regularly.
