Captures the raw explosiveness of true hardcore while managing to sound HUGE and lo-fi at the same time. I love how this album sounds. Good shit. Zachary Jacoboni

Out of the ashes of my beloved In Solitude, Henrik Palm (leading the 3-piece Sonic Ritual) released this fantastic EP the same year as "Sister." This is simply straight ahead New Wave Of British Heavy Metal-influenced amazement. The dude can write riffs that will get stuck in your head for years. Well done and worth the 15 minutes of your life to turn up & soak in. bcb723
