About
Born from the Ritual
White Ritual is a French darkwave and electro-rock band from Strasbourg, signed to darkTunes Music Group. Dark electronic atmospheres, powerful guitars and darksynth textures shape the band’s sound. Founded in January 2019 by Ricardo Gomes — former vocalist of the metal band Absurdity and composer/producer known as zNo — the group brings together four creative forces.
Blending ethereal female vocals, harsh growls, sharp synths, and cinematic guitars, White Ritual forges a ritualistic universe of gothic and electronic depth. Their lyrics explore the tensions of human nature: abandonment, love, death, desire, and belief.
Drawing inspiration from Killing Joke, FKA Twigs, and Chelsea Wolfe, the band offers a modern alternative to 80s gothic clichés — in tune with the present moment.

Latest Single — February 2026
Furious Passion (feat. Kylreez)
A neon-charged collision of modern synthwave and White Ritual’s darkwave DNA. Retro-futuristic synths, dark sensuality and Lily’s seductive vocals capture the rush of uncontrollable desire.
