Austrian heavy psychedelic foursome RYTE stream the second track off their self-titled debut album ‘Ryte’, due out January 17th on Heavy Psych Sounds.
« With « Shaking Pyramid“, being the longest composition on the album, we tried to catch a certain doomy atmosphere of the present, interdimensionally connected to the past and future. With almost no lyrics the track tells the story of ancient structures, evoked by alien craftsmanship« , comments the band.

RYTE’s debut album is the result of an intense one-and-a-half-year writing process. The album consists of four long tracks, that pushes the boundaries of Psych rock as it is influenced by Doom, Prog Rock, Jazz and even World Music. The sound is dominated by down-tuned, sometimes doomy, sometimes epic twin guitars, dynamic and jazzy drums, distorted, playful bass lines and spacey Theremin landscapes. Drummer Hannes Ganeider recorded the LP at his own rehearsal space, while Michael Piller did the mixing and none other than the underground producer-legend Tim Green mastered the album at Louder Studios in California.
Debut album ‘Ryte’ will be available in the following formats:
– 20 Test Press vinyl
– 250 Ultra LTD Orange Transparent vinyl
– 350 LTD Clear Water Green vinyl
– Black vinyl
– CD and digital

PREORDER
In mid-2016, Hannes, Arik & Shardik decided to start a new project
together. Arik & Shardik, at that time have already been playing
several years together in Pastor and were looking for someone to jam
with. By chance they met drummer Hannes at a Saviours show in Vienna.
Shortly afterwards RYTE was founded. The only thing
that was still missing was a bass-player. The band finally found the
last missing part in late 2016 and was then a complete four-piece with
Lukas on bass. They spent at least one intense year of continuous
rehearsals and songwriting sessions in order to get a live-set and of
course, an album together. In late 2017 they set up their very first
(private) show at their rehearsal space in Vienna, spiked with a
mind-blowing liquid light show done by “Ufonauten”. Then, they were
lucky enough to play festivals like Lake on Fire, Stick & Stone and
share stages with amazing like-minded bands such as Sacri Monti, Golden
Void and Mothers of the Land just to name a few! Since day one, the
band’s goal was to play sophisticated, mostly instrumental Heavy Psych
with little hints of classic Prog, Space Rock, Doom and plenty of other
stuff. Speaking of influences, the band is not limited by any means as
long as it sounds fresh and interesting and does the band’s initial idea
of adventurous heaviness justice. RYTE’s self-titled debut album will
be out soon via Heavy Psych Sounds!
