Rites To Ruin - Arkham Witch - Vanitas

Rites to Ruin are traditional heavy metal at its finest with a distinctly modern twist.

With Matt Chambers (Triaxis, In the Absence of Light) & Lee Cartner on guitar, Paul Boschen (Burn thy Enemy) on bass and Zak Skane currently on loan on drums, Rites to Ruin offers a distinct slice of NWOBHM promising a loud sound that will have you head banging in seconds.

Support comes from:

Arkham Witch :

ARKHAM WITCH was formed in 2008 in Keighley, West Yorkshire, UK, after a diabolical pact between Simon Iff? (vocals and guitars) and Emily Ningauble (drums) to raise the elder gods using a doom filled, NWOBHM tinged traditional metal sound frequency as a summoning device. They bring you Heavy Metal/Doom infused with Lovecraftian horror, tales of mighty Barbarians and Festering Horrors!

Vanitas:

Described once as “Periphery meets Disney” UK progressive metal outfit Vanitas have been forging their unique blend of djent and symphonic elements since 2022; creating what they’ve coined ‘cinematic djent’. Inspired by bands such as: Periphery, Devin Townsend and Dream Theater, Vanitas are known for their soaring melodies, cinematic production and immersive, maximalist production. The Birmingham 5-piece have wasted no time establishing themselves in the UK music scene with dynamic live performances supporting acts in the past such as Monuments, Voyager, Galactic Empire & Destrage.
