PUNKS WHO DOOM WITH A DRUM MACHINE. Black Skull Ritual is industrial doom punk metal. Old school metal riffs and ear damaging, bass heavy drum machine beats. Bassist and vocalist Baron Von Strange growls with a Lydon sneer of punk intensity. Guitarist Karl Lawrence mixes punk and doom metal riffs drawing comparisons to Celtic Frost, Venom and the Sex Pistols in equal measure. Black Skull Ritual have brought sonic chaos to venues and festivals across the UK including a sold out show with black metal titans The Infernal Sea, electronic Nu-core pioneers Seething Akira, Die Kur, Pretty Addicted, Alien Vampires, Everest Queen and rising Essex metal stars Beyond Extinction.
4 piece band from Essex. If your ears aren’t ringing, we haven’t done our job right.
