Speaking about the enduring legacy of the record, the band’s drummer and co-producer Butch Vig explains: “Version 2.0 is the sound of a band growing up, evolving, and more than anything, gaining confidence. When we started recording, we made a conscious decision to not re-invent ourselves, but rather take everything we learned from our debut album and filter it through the new digital technology we were grappling with. Sonically, the album has moments of razor-sharp clarity and soft beauty. Indeed, it’s possibly our best album.”
Rituals of Mine – is a Los Angeles based electronic/downtempo r&b act who make “gorgeously gloomy pop” (Noisey) that exudes unparalleled passion, emotion and personal lyrics into their music. Lead singer Terra Lopez has been praised by The FADER, Pitchfork, Stereogum, Billboard, BUST Magazine and more for her captivating and ruthless stage presence. In 2018, BUST Magazine called Lopez “the movement leader we’ve all been waiting for”. Rituals of Mine’s beguiling debut ‘Devoted’ (produced by Wes Jones & co-produced by Omar Rodriguez-Lopez) was widely acclaimed in indie electronic circles and led the group to national tours with Deftones, Tricky, ANTEMASQUE, Le Butcherettes, The Afghan Whigs, Built to Spill, Doomtree & more. Most recently, Lopez has collaborated with Tricky and The Glitch Mob and can be heard on both of their most recent works. Rituals of Mine are currently working on their highly anticipated sophomore LP.
