Vaticinal Rites

Vaticinal Rites, Cosmic Vibration Festival 28th/29th/30th August 2026. London’s Vaticinal Rites emerged in 2021 with their debut EP, released jointly through Redefining Darkness Records, Caligari Records and Dry Cough Records. The release served as a raw and uncompromising introduction, firmly rooted in the traditions of ’90s death metal.  Drawing influence from genre titans such as Morbid Angel, Death and Vital Remains, the band channel a sound defined by blistering tremolo riffs, relentless aggression and unflinching technical precision — classic death metal in its purest form.  In May 2024, Vaticinal Rites released their debut full-length, Cascading Memories of Immortality, via Everlasting Spew Records. The album quickly made waves throughout the underground, with Blabbermouth.net giving it a 9/10 and describing it as “as complete and cohesive as any of those revered ’90s classics, easily comparable to any of the modern scene’s most celebrated records.”  Since their release, the band have taken their uncompromising sound to notable stages, including Killtown Death Fest and Helsinki Death Fest. In February 2026, they released a one-off digital promo single entitled ‘Augury of the Bloodied Crucible’, further cementing their reputation as one of the UK underground’s most formidable rising death metal acts. With new material on the horizon and continued live activity, Vaticinal Rites remain firmly committed to pushing forward the legacy of true death metal.  Tickets available from the link in the bio, we also have payment plans!
