Geezer Butler’s new supergroup Deadland Ritual just dropped their first single, and it’s proof that he’s still not done rocking

'Down In Flames', the supergroup's first single, is a sludgy, anthemic number with wailing guitars that showcases each member's honed skills without feeling cluttered at any point.
PUBLISHED DEC 11, 2018

Last week, we wrote about the emergence of an impressive looking new supergroup. Composed of Black Sabbath bassist and songwriter Geezer Butler, former Guns N’ Roses drummer Matt Sorum, longtime Billy Idol guitarist Steve Stevens, and vocalist Franky Perez from Apocalyptica, the heavy metal quartet looked impressive on paper and called themselves Deadland Ritual. 

Now, after teasing bits and pieces of their first single through the band's rapidly growing social media accounts, Deadland Ritual has just released the single in full, accompanied by its own music video, proving that the outfit is not one of those that just look good on paper, and that there's some seriously dense stuff to explore. 

Titled 'Down In Flames', the supergroup's debut single showcases the impressive skills of each of the veteran members, stitched together to deliver an epic sing-along rock anthem.
