In This Moment announce new album ‘Ritual’
IN THIS MOMENT have announced a brand new album!
The upcoming new album, titled Ritual, is the sixth effort from the band and follows 2014’s Black Widow, and is scheduled to be released in July! The upcoming album was produced by longtime collaborator and multiple Grammy Award nominee Kevin Churko (Ozzy Osbourne, FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH) and will include a re-imagination of Phil Collins’ classic In The Air Tonight as well as a guest appearance from JUDAS PRIEST frontman Rob Halford. Speaking about the upcoming album, lead vocalist Maria Brink says, “It’s like we’re going into the next realm. I had a conviction of feeling empowered in my life and with myself. I always write from a personal place, and I needed to share that sense of strength. I’ve never been afraid to hold back. Sometimes, I can be very suggestive. However, I wanted to show our fans that this is the most powerful side of myself and it’s without overt sexuality. It’s that deeper serious fire inside of my heart.” Guitarist Chris Howorth adds, “When fans hear this, I want them to feel the music, whether they take away sadness, anger, or happiness. As a kid, I remember listening to records and putting them on repeat over and over again. I’d love for the world to listen and absorb this as a piece of work.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band has revealed the first single from the upcoming record. Watch the official music video for Oh Lord here:
Ritual is set for release on July 21st via Atlantic Records. Pre-orders are available now and can be purchased here.
