Launched in 2020, Ripple Music's "Turned To Stone" split series focus on unique pairings from across the stoner, doom and heavy psych underground and explore the farthest reaches of riffdom.

with Ritual Earth's "Through Interstellar Medium"
RITUAL EARTH’s progressive sound lends itself to complex lyrical themes and heavy use of emotions and symbolism. Says the band: "We explored introspection and dove much deeper into personal and darker issues with our unconscious minds to practice spotting our inner shadows. The death of a rival, relapsing and overcoming addiction, navigating the complexities, experiences, and challenges in our lives and the changing world around us are all topics you will find intertwined throughout these three songs."
"Turned To Stone Chapter 9" will be available on January 12th, 2024 in various vinyl formats as well as digitally, with preorders available now on Ripple Music.

Hardworking and entrancing spacey doom RITUAL EARTH from
Philadelphia, Ritual Earth have rapidly built a name for themselves as
atmospheric doom masters with a passion for DIY. Fusing veteran musicianship,
talent and ambitious goals, Ritual Earth are out to take on the world. With
their surprisingly heavy atmospheric space rock approach the band quickly
carved out their unique spot amongst the top of their genre. Their decades of
experience have shaped them into a well-oiled machine with a long road ahead. Website⎪Facebook⎪Bandcamp⎪Instagram⎪Spotify
Inspired as much by the lysergic atmospheres of OM and King Buffalo as by the likes of Ufomammut and Sleep, Italy’s KAZAK was formed in 2018 by Matteo Gherardi (drums, pads) and Daniele Picchi (guitar, voice, synth). They have been playing together since 2007 first in a tribute band, then in their original project Fish Taco. In 2018 they started writing and recording songs as a duo under the Kazak monicker. Perfectly blending stoner rock and psychedelic atmospheres into a wall of doom, KAZAK's reverberated voices lead you into introspective journeys where primitive and gargantuan drums show the path to follow.
