Crushing modern metal powered by intensity, ambition and unstoppable Northern grit.
If you'd like to be the first to know when new events are announced, you can follow Rituals below.
Rituals are a visceral, hard-hitting metal band from Newcastle, channelling intensity, precision and a modern edge into a sound that feels both crushing and fresh. The quartet first turned heads when they won Kerrang!’s The Deal, earning a prized signing with Marshall Records and a coveted slot at Download Festival — a career-defining moment that cemented them as one of the UK’s most exciting rising metal acts. With razor-sharp riffs, thunderous drums and a blend of aggression and melody, Rituals craft music that hits with full force while delivering a contemporary twist on metal’s heaviest traditions.
Their live presence is equally commanding. Rituals have already shared the stage with Cane Hill, As Everything Unfolds and the legendary Skindred, proving they can hold their own among some of the scene’s most respected names. Their performances are fierce, cathartic and filled with unstoppable energy, winning over crowds and carving out a loyal fanbase. With momentum on their side and a sound built for big stages, Rituals are rapidly becoming a defining force within the next wave of UK metal.
Ticket prices may vary depending on venue and location. Full pricing details are available on each individual event page.
