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. www.instagram.com/killritual www.twitter.com/killritual www.facebook.com/killritual
