Grief Ritual Announce Debut Album ‘Collapse’ and Release First Single ‘Bile’ (Featuring Harry Nott of Burner)!

Carl Fisher 1 min read

Collapse is the follow-up to their self-released debut EP Spiritual Disease, which caught the attention of many major publications such as Kerrang, Knotfest, Rock Sound and shortlisted for Metal Hammer’s albums of the year 2022.

On their debut album Collapse, the anger, frustration, and disenfranchisement they feel about the UK and the wider world are laid bare. Human extinction, capitalism, genocide, ecocide, and the rise of populist right authoritarianism are explored in garish detail across the record.

Collapse has an abundance of riffs, breakdowns and a bass tone fit to tear down the establishment. Dualling vocals from a wide spectrum of extreme metal influences can be heard throughout the record, providing the perfect centerpiece for these eleven tracks of despotic terror.

The band has not only caught the attention of many with their recorded output but they have also been riling up crowds with their explosive live performances. In the band’s short existence they have already made appearances at festivals such as Bloodstock, 2000 Trees, ArcTanGent and Tech Fest.

GRIEF RITUAL have also supported Knocked Loose, Terror, Gatecreeper, END, Fuming Mouth, Heriot, Wiegedood, Ithaca, Inter Arma and Pupil Slicer. The band passed their one-hundred-show marker in early 2024 proving their unwavering commitment to their art and the important messages behind it.
