'Atomic Ritual' is Nebula's 3rd full lenght released in 2003. "Stoner rock? Bonghit metal? Old school hard rock? Call it what ya want, but it is clear from the first 3 seconds of Nebula's 'Atomic Ritual' that these guys have been listening to a lot of Hawkwind! Droning, heavy, fuzzy and flat-out rockin' as fuck, this album is more conceptual than their previous effort, but no less pulverizing. Produced by Master of Reality (and Queens of the Stone Age/Kyuss mentor) Chris Goss, 'Atomic Ritual' is the band's most layered, bold work to date and finds them veering closer to the headfuck ethos of early Monster Magnet than the indie classic rock they ventured into on their Sub Pop effort.
