HOLY NAME Unveil Video For “Ritual” Ahead Of Upcoming EP ‘Three Bar Cross’

Los Angeles-based metalcore force HOLY NAME have dropped their devastating new video for Ritual, announcing the release of their forthcoming EP Three Bar Cross, due November 14. The single captures the band at full velocity — brutal riffs, thunderous drums and razor-sharp vocals combine under a dark cinematic veneer, signalling the arrival of something significant in the modern heavy scene.

With Three Bar Cross, HOLY NAME continue to expand their sonic palette while staying rooted in aggressive emotion and unfiltered heaviness. Ritual stands as a manifesto of the EP’s themes: confrontation, catharsis and transformation. The band navigate these with compositional ambition — shifting between pummelling breakdowns and haunting melodic passages, grounding their intensity in purposeful structure.

Visually the video for Ritual reflects the band’s thematic ambition — bleak, atmospheric and charged with a sense of ritualistic ritualism. It’s not just a performance piece but a visual statement: DARK imagery, symbolic framing and raw performance energy bring the track’s tension to life. Viewers witness HOLY NAME in their element: commanding, relentless and uncompromising.

Mark your calendars: Three Bar Cross lands November 14. With Ritual setting the stage, HOLY NAME are poised to deliver one of the most impactful metalcore releases of the late year. Stay locked in and ready — the countdown to this sonic reckoning has begun.
