Ritual, produced by Alan Moulder, is the perfect epic and roaring follow up taking us on a sonic journey through dance-floor beats meets raging guitars and everything in between, fused together perfectly, and all at an incredibly melodic breakneck speed.

The album teems with dark distorted anthems for the modern age. critics have given white lies accolades as successors to the likes of Echo & The Bunnymen, The Teardrop Explodes, Depeche Mode, The Psychedelic Furs and Magazine and have called lyricist Charles Cave "a classic doom-rock dreamweaver; Nick Cave meeting Edgar Allen Poe."
