In the mid-nineties, Martin Zellmer, drummer with the band RED FIRE RAIN (2 CDs), had the idea to form a band,
which should be completely different from all the other German Heavy Metal bands. In summer 2001 the first line-up was complete and after a few weeks their first single was recorded ("Orchid Queen"/"Liquid Steel") and released by a small North-German vinyl label at the end of 2001. The line-up changed a little several times while the band recorded two albums ("A Hell of a Knight" and "Blitz Invasion"/2004), and four singles between 2002 and 2005. The band had successful live-appearances at several festivals like the Headbangers.. Open Air and gigs with bands like TWISTED TOWER DIRE, SLOUGH FEG, VORTEX or SACRED STEEL. During this time, Martin Zellmer also recorded a Z-IRON split-LP and an ISEN TORR "10! Shortly after the release of this "10, Martin decided to quit this project, because he couldn..t identify with the band..s political message. So, problems were to follow... By the end of 2004, the musicians of RITUAL STEEL decided to go separate ways. Drummer Martin Zellmer wanted to do something more professional and went in search of a new line-up. The other band members went on to play under a different name. Another reason for this split-up was the fact that Martin often had to advance money to pay the band..s bills, or even pay them with his own money; and he didn..t want to do this any more. So, a lot of bad rumours started to circle to ruin Martins career.
Two years later Martin had his new line-up, which in fact was better than ever before!

John Cason (EXILED) - Vocals
Sven Boege (IVORY TOWER) - Guitar
Stefan Ikert (IVORY TOWER) - Bass
On their 2007 single, RITUAL STEEL are more forceful and professional than ever, and the sound is a lot better than before. This excellent re-start is something no true Metal-Head, who likes bands like AGENT STEEL, OMEN,
THRUST, MANILLA ROAD or MANOWAR, should miss!
In may 2007 the new RITUAL STEEL album "Invincible Warriors", with songs like "Raiders (from Space)", "Killer Attack" and "The Witch" is released by Karthago Records. All songs are composed by Martin, who was responsible for classics like "Solar Eagle", "Ritual Steel", "Victory", "Metalbeasts" and several other songs.
Karthago Records, which is releasing RITUAL STEEL's albums, is a label the band can truly count on. While Karthago Records will release the coming albums on CD (distribution by Twilight), the cult-label Killermetal Records, specialist for highclass vinyl releases, will be responsible for RITUAL STEEL..s vinyl releases.
Traditional Heavy Metal from the north of Germany with international standard! We hope, all you Heavy Metal
Maniacs will like it!!!

Hey guys, we have posted a test mix (a teaser!) of THE ETHEREAL DREAM featuring former HELLOWEEN singer master Michael Kiske. It's not a heavy track.. but there are still some rocking parts with high vocals! Two different versions of this song will appear on our debut. The original is featuring the huge talent of Mike Gorham... while the 'Kiske-version' will be added as a bonus track". About "34613"; we're slowly but surely getting there! Only 2 more songs left to record now. I'll keep you updated. Have a great weekend. Best wishes from Sörvik "Rock" City and Northern Norway.. PS! We have also uploaded a 34613-teaser for YouTube.
