"WARPED/KERRANG! contest voting
There's nothing cooler than shocking people with the power of our River People.. We've won 2 of the 3 Warped contests already thanks to you guys .. You have no idea how much that helps and how much it means to us! Granted we have to play longer in the 179 degree heat and you all know we're out of shape because we've been writing for a few months ha .. Jk its has been INCREDIBLE. The crowds and our RPI family have been amazing and we can't thank you enough. We will do so in the only way we know how and that is to deliver the best record we possibly can... And words can't describe our excitement with the new material. So hey .. THANK YOU times a million and hey .. Keep on voting for warped and KERRANG!'s Best International Band and we'll .... Umm ... Well I don't what we'll do but it will kick ass. Thank you and much love...

Caught somewhere in Warped...
The wishes of ridiculous days go out to all from your family in Mad Lake.
I want to explain our take on the Maiden track...
Qs you know we are a relatively unconventional band. We don't generally choose the paths paved by others. And neither do you folks, which is why we're all here together.
We approached the cover like this:
Iron Maiden is a band that blazed a trail for metal. They sold out arenas and stadiums for decades with no radio airplay at all. They took a genre and twisted it up into a ball and spit it back out and the genre never looked the same since. They curved the trajectory of metal ...Not many can say that.
When we were asked to cover em, we wanted to pay homage to where metal is NOW, because of what they did 20 years ago. A "thank you" of sorts for all of the great bands and music that existed because of them. So we imagined our version to be a modernized metal version, with Madina Lake's character filling the spaces in between.
We hope those on the fence will warm up to it someday!
Warped Tour is an eye opener for us. With our RPI in full effect, we realized how many friends we've made over the past couple of years on the road...You all are giving us the confidence and strength to go make you all a killer record next month.
Love you guys endlessly,
Matthew

"What's happenin' River Creepers ...
It's Nathan and I just wanted to check in with you all and give another huge thanks for everything you do. We're finally back in Chicago to finish up a few more songs before we go to Jersey and track "Attics". It's gonna be crazy that's all I'm gonna tell you about that.. Anyway thanks again for winning us like 7 of those Warped contests!! You have no idea how much it helped and how cool it made us look to everyone on Warped who was like "WHO THE HELL ARE THESE RIVER PEOPLE!?!" Ha it was awesome. Anyway - wanted to mention something else real quick.. It looks like someone managed to hack into our emails or at least email people and make it look like it came from one of us. Just wanted to give you a heads up .. If one of us emails you and says some weird stuff it's likely not us. Well maybe it's jeezy cuz he's a weirdo ha .. Thanks again, all the love in the world and start whoring out "ATTICS TO EDEN" cuz it's gonna be something special!!
Ps. It would feel real special to win KERRANG'S BEST INTERNATIONAL BAND ... I'm just sayin' :)"
Alors, alors ... Ils sont rentrés à Chicago où ils finissent quelques chansons avant d'aller à Jersey enregistrer "Attics To Eden". Ils peuvent juste nous dire que ce sera dingue ^^" Ils nous remercient de leur avoir fait gagner 7 des concours du Warped Tour (pour jouer 10 minutes de set supplémentaires), ce qui les a rendus cools aux yeux des autres, qui se demandaient qui étaient ces p*t**n de River People XDD Ils ont trouvé çà génial. Sinon, ils veulent nous prévenir que quelqu'un a apparemment réussi à pirater leurs e-mails, donc si on reçoit un message d'un d'entre eux disant des choses louches, ce n'est pas eux (hop, j'ai cassé votre joie mdr). Ils nous remercient, ils nous aiment, et il faut qu'on se prépare pour "Attics" parce que ce sera unique. Et bien sûr, ils seraient très contents de gagner le Best International Band Kerrang Award ...
