Perfect in time before Walpurghis Night, when rituals will take place, the Swedish thrash metal force MEZZROW returns with a unique cover version of the GHOST classic "Ritual"!
While the song coincidentally drops at the same time as the release of GHOST’s new album, MEZZROW frontman Uffe Pettersson reveals: ”It’s always special when it comes to cover versions. It would be a natural thing for us to do a cover of a Vio-lence tune or perhaps something from Forbidden’s old catalogue. But too predictable! So we set our sights on something Swedish and more unusual. ”Ritual” is an old Ghost-classic and kind of a cult song from their first album. From our point of view it was a perfect song to turn into a thrashy track and it’s quite catchy with a strong chorus. You can also detect a resemblance in the lyrics for all of us who are fans of the Omen movies. Enjoy!”
"Ritual" was mixed by Ronnie Björnström (Meshuggah a.o.) and was mastered by Tomas ”Plec” Johansson (Watain a.o.). Once again, this enthralling cover version showcases the diversity of MEZZROW. Stream it now on all digital services at: https://mezzrow.rpm.link/ritual
