Sadistic Ritual

This week’s new releases are loud, trippy and dark, with the latest from Septicflesh, Blut Aus Nord, Malevolence and more!

Hear the new single from Atlanta psych-thrashers Sadistic Ritual, taken from their new album, The Enigma, Boundless.

Atlanta thrashers Sadistic Ritual reveal “Visionaire of Death.”

Of thrash’s three faces–sociopolitico, violent, comical–Atlanta’s Sadistic Ritual embody the aggro. They aren’t singing about saving whales and the injustice of corporate profits. Nor are they singing about keg parties and barf consistency in DayGlo Bermuda shorts. No, Sadistic Ritual, as the name implies, is about riots of violence, the realities of getting bombed–as in the thermobaric kind–and showing no mercy.
