2007 debut studio album by a group composed (as some might suspect) of former members of Hawkwind: Nik Turner, Terry Ollis, Dave Anderson, Thomas Crimble and Mick Slattery. Space Ritual arises like a phoenix from Hawkwind's ashes with this stunning album of original material that takes the ground-breaking music into a new dimension that is both contemporary but keenly aware of it's heritage and roots.  The lyrics feature poems penned by Sci-fi author Michael Moorcock. One reviewer who was privileged to hear these sessions prior to their release remarked that the sound was 'more Hawkwind than Hawkwind'.  However, this band's sound is light years beyond their former incarnation, forging their own style and future.
