Ritual Spirit via short track snippets that you could only discover by downloading an app called Fantom.

Fittingly, the visuals are melancholily sound tracked by Massive Attack member Tricky's slow and steady vocals, and an array of equally gloomy instrumentation.Check it out in the player above, and head here to purchase the group's new EP.
