Overview

Rituals is the second studio album by British electropop band Fenech-Soler. It was released on 25 September 2013 by Warner Bros. Records and B-Unique Records, it is the major label debut of Fenech-Soler, whose previous record was released under the London-based B-Unique Records. The album is a follow-up to the band's 2012–13 singles "All I Know", "Magnetic" and "Last Forever", all of which feature on the album. A special edition of the album with a new track listing was released a year later on 25 August 2014 and replaced the band's first full-length US release, (which subsequently was deleted from online services). It features four tracks from their previous self-titled debut studio album. Packaging The artwork for Rituals features a photograph taken by South African professional photographer Andrew McGibbon. The photograph, entitled Stars Bow, features a horse named Star, lit in Strobe lighting, taking a "bow" in front of the camera. The photograph is part of a series of photographs taken by McGibbon as a collection entitled All the Wild Horses, which was originally released online in April 2012. The artist statement for the work states: "For thousands of years the horse has been mankind's closest ally. The horse made travel and development possible. We tethered, weighted and reigned them. We captured, stabled and trained them.

Notable quotes

“A prayer couched in the words of the soul, is far more powerful than any ritual.”
— Paulo Coelho, Brida
“Empires do not suffer emptiness of purpose at the time of their creation. It is when they have become established that aims are lost and replaced by vague ritual.”
— Frank Herbert, Dune Messiah
“Ritual. One more gaudy emptiness in place of the real thing. One more hope gone.”
— Nancy Kress, Words Like Pale Stones, in Ellen Datlow & Terri Windling (eds.) Black Thorn, White Rose (1994), , p. 25
“Sleep is the most moronic fraternity in the world, with the heaviest dues and the crudest rituals. It is a mental torture I find debasing... I simply cannot get used to the nightly betrayal of reason, humanity, genius.”
— Vladimir Nabokov, Speak, Memory
“A daughter who respects you while you’re alive is far better than a son who performs the rites and rituals after you’re gone.”
— Sanu Sharma, Daughter
“Bea says that the art of reading is slowly dying, that it's an intimate ritual, that a book is a mirror that offers us only what we already carry inside us, that when we read, we do it with all our heart and mind, and great readers are becoming more scarce by the day.”
— Carlos Ruiz Zafón, The Shadow of the Wind
