The KILL RITUAL
story begins back in 2010 when former members of Imagika and Eldritch formed KILL RITUAL. KILL RITUAL was
one that took its traditional Heavy Metal influences and then blended and
molded them into a very powerful, modernized machine. The music of KILL RITUAL has
always been very guitar-oriented, courtesy of axe-slinger and founder Steven D. Rice.
He has been the singular, constant presence in the band since its inception.
In 2012 KILL RITUAL
issued their debut album 'The
Serpentine Ritual' to much critical acclaim and positive
acceptance. KILL
RITUAL toured the US twice on the release. That was followed
by the 2014 effort 'The
Eyes Of Medusa' which once again garnered the band increased
attention, accolades and again was followed with as US tour. The band started
work on the follow ‘Karma
Machine’, an album produced by Steven and mixed/mastered by
the legendary Andy
La Rocque (King
Diamond). KILL
RITUAL once again toured the US and also made their European
debut alongside NWOBHM
legends Raven.
February 2018 KILL
RITUAL released the 4th album, titled ‘All Man Shall Fall’
and started a massive North American tour with Iced Earth and Sanctuary.
