FIL BO RIVA is back with a new song and has just announced his next studio album entitled "Modern Melancholia", which will be released in September 2023. To celebrate this new piece of music, there will be an exclusive tour in intimate locations to give his closest fans the chance to experience this emotional album as authentically as possible.
About the song, FIL BO RIVA states:
"Everything's Illusion is probably the song I had lying around the longest.
It was supposed to be a slow ballad and appear on my first album, but I never managed to finish it. Then, in 2021, during the cold Berlin winter, I picked it up again and finally finished writing it. This song reflects the feeling of infinite possibilities we have in this world: always wanting more, always wanting everything, always being able to get what we want right now. "See the moon rising, see the sun smiling, but I just want more" clearly shows this feeling of never being satisfied with the world, our lives and the things we already have. In a way it is a hymn to today's society and describes my personal view on an overstimulated and unreflective modern capitalistic world. Because ultimately it all boils down to one illusion: who are we as human beings to know what we really need?
