Rites of the Youth was formed in the beginning of the year 2004. At first the band’s sound was substantially lighter: songs were simpler - more traditional metal pieces. After getting the line-up complete we immediately recorded a demo consisting of five songs. This first demo was downloadable for a short period of time.

The ambition for songwriting and playing tighter as a band grew and the material started to develop in to a heavier, aggressive and considerably more technical direction. The earlier songs got run over by the new heavier material and the need to develop as a band and as song writers grew even stronger. A song called “First Love, First Scar” was the one to set a new musical direction for the band. We recorded the song for internet distribution and shot a video for it - which was also our debut music video.

After “First Love, First Scar” new songs were written and soon we started to record new material. In the summer 2006 Half Flame Theory-EP was released with a limited edition of 200 pcs. It was very quickly sold out so we decided to release it on our website as well, and to this date it can still be found there.

Since then our goal has been to challenge ourselves as musicians and as composers – We want to evolve and take our music to the next level still maintaining the love and passion for playing and live performing. So far we have made everything from cover art to the music video by ourselves. In general we try to create our material so that it can be performed in the studio as well as in a live situation and we think we have succeeded in doing this so far. We have measured our live performance skills over thirty times to this day and plan to keep measuring them in the future as often as possible.

The best description of our current sound would be “hardcore influenced metal with some progressive elements”. The variety of bands and music genres that have influenced our music is huge due to the extensive music taste of the members of the band. We think of our music as rapid spurts of heavy melodic mass not forgetting the occasional focused sentimental, emotional parts. We hope that the year 2008 has a lot of things to offer us because we sure have a lot of things to offer for the year 2008 and for you guys.
