Mastering by Patrick W. Engel at TEMPLE OF DISHARMONY

The history of Ritual is a sad tale of circulating rumors and sheer ignorance by the British music press. It is high time to get some things straight! Ritual could have been HUGE. Now, some thirty-six years after forming, it looks as if mastermind Re Bethe (guitar, vocals), bassist Phil Mason and drummer Rex Duval finally start to get the recognition they deserve. With their two albums "Widow" and "Valley of the Kings" having recently been blessed with a vinyl re-release by High Roller Records, the broader public begins to see the band in a totally new light: as innovators of a totally unique style of heavy rock music. But let's start at the very beginning. The year is 1973 ... the birth of Ritual is nigh ... In the early '70's, in Great Britain outfits like Black Sabbath, Black Widow and Atomic Rooster played some form of heavy music labelled occult rock by the music press. Over in America, a group called Coven had shocked the public with their "Witchcraft destroys Minds and reaps Souls" album (originally released in 1970). The same year Sabbath unleashed their brilliant "Sabbath bloody Sabbath" longplayer, Gypsy Re Bethe set out to form his own band: "I don't think we ever classed ourselves as an occult rock band. I think we were more of a heavy rock band. But obviously we watched what was happening around us at the time. I think early Ritual was somehow influenced by Black Sabbath. You know, I wanted to do something that was a cross between Purple and Sabbath. Those were the only two rock bands I ever listened to, really. I think Black Sabbath and Deep Purple had it pretty right."
