Dead Ritual
Dead Ritual was born in a Cape Coral garage, coming into existence through tragedy. Original founder, Brody Shaxx, lost his musical mentor and best friend - his uncle Eric Rasmussen - in 2017. But through the darkness in which Brody slipped into, came the inspiration for Dead Ritual's first original song - Six Steps to Death.
The song drips with anger, sadness and finally - acceptance.
Since then, Dead Ritual is carving their own niche' in the heavy metal music scene of Southwest Florida. Their blend of darkness, heavy riffs and down right bad-ass attitude, lends mightily to their high-octane and fast-pace shows. The band brings the perversion of Marilyn Manson, the head-banger attitude of Hate Breed and the stage antics of SlipKnot.
Brody has taken on the duo role of lead vocals and bass, while Joseph Bentley brings a heavy hitting playing style on the drums. There is a perfect blend on strings between Doug Campbell on lead and Josh Palacios on rhythm guitar.
Each of the Dead Ritual four bring something different to the band, but all have one goal in common - to bring Dead Ritual to national prominence and bring their own touch of heavy metal to the growing #BeDead Nation with original thrashing songs like "Six Steps to Death", "We are [FØE]", "Poison Eyes", "Prescription" and "Live Fast, Die Now".
