San Francisco Bay Area metallers Kill Ritual, featuring former members of Imagika and Dark Angel, have issued the following update from guitarist Steve Rice:

“Kill Ritual drummer auditions are officially open. Our drummer and good friend Gee Anzalone has left the band to join DragonForce! We are proud of him and wish him all the best in his new endeavor(s)! Thanks for the good times Gee!

That being said, Kill Ritual is in need of a killer drummer to fill his shoes! If you’re familiar with our music and know what it takes please contact us below. If not please visit Killritual.com to find out.

We are accepting submissions worldwide via video or audio and need you to perform at least two Kill Ritual tracks of your choice for our review. A brief bio and recent photo are also required. Please be aware that we will consider performance, style, image, etc. in our review of submitted material. Age and gender are a non issue. We will upload all video’s to our management’s YouTube channel.

Please submit material to our management at the following address: promo@rockngrowl.com.

Cheers and best of luck!”
