Ritualz drops ‘MIMIC’ cover album – Out now
Ritualz
Out now on Re:Mission Entertainment is “MIMIC”, the brand new cover album by Mexico City’s dark electro act Ritualz. The album is the follow-up to 2022 released “Radical Macabro” full length. The album is out on digital and CD and is a collection of songs Ritualz has covered since the inception of the project, all re-recorded for this release.
The covers on this album range from tracks by Depeche Mode to the late Xxxtentacion going through Marilyn Manson, The Smashing Pumpkins, and Nine Inch Nails and Industrial/Witchy versions of singles by Lenny Kravitz and Spanish pop icon Miguel Bosé.
The album holds photos of JC as a young goth growing up in the suburbs “as life started revolving around dark music as a means of rebellion.” This is the first of two releases commemorating fifteen years of Ritualz.
You can download the new album below, or order the CD from Bandcamp.

Why we ask
Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.

Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void.
