�Ritual Abuse is an unprecedented death trip ..... you will not encounter anything sicker and heavier than this�..� � Rock Tribune

�Ritual Abuse is psychologically ominous; a misanthropic brand of broody devil doom that�s at once dark and spacious� by the time the whole thing�s over, the room seems to smell like burning tube amp, there�s a wicked kink in my neck and my teeth feel loose.� � Decibel

�Thank Electric Wizard, Black Sabbath, and a LOT of weed for making this band possible.� � Terrorizer
