A Ritual Seas self-titled debut album delivers a beautiful wash of melancholic synth dreamwave, reverb-soaked vocals and layers of shimmering shoegaze guitars. The band stems from couple Florian Chombart and Donna McCabes relationship, with ten tracks circling around the theme of fearfear of losing something, the person you love, a sense of self, your self-control, your sense of security.

The album is inspired by the visually arresting micro explorations of relationships by filmmakers such as Andrei Tarkovsky, Robert Altman and Ingmar Bergman. It was be released on post-punk label Icy Cold Records.

All music composed and recorded by Florian Chombart. All vocals by Donna McCabe and Florian Chombart. All lyrics by Donna McCabe, except Hit A Lie lyrics by Florian Chombart.

Self-produced and recorded at A Ritual Seas home studio.
Mixed by Nicolas Subrchicot. Mastered by Benjamin Joubert at Biduloscope Mastering. All songs copyright A RITUAL SEA [IMRO].
