CHUGGA RITUAL is a one-man metal project by Bo Skullbanger, which was started in 2008. Bo Skullkanger, aka Brader Bo, is also the producer/presenter of Singapore’s only metal radio show on mainstream radio, VICIOUS VOLUME on MediaCorp’s Ria 89.7FM. Bo is the mastermind who writes the songs and lyrics, plays guitars, does the vocals and engineers the production. Guest musicians aka ‘ritual participants’ are central to Chugga Ritual’s being. They include musicians from within or outside the metal genre and not confined to just Singapore musicians. Collaboration also comes in the form of production aspects. Liege-Leech, Chugga Ritual’s first-ever full-length, was mixed and mastered by Urban Merhar, drummer of Slovenian metal band Chicksy Dicks, in Ljubljana, Slovenia.The internet, particularly Facebook, has been crucial in making Chugga Ritual’s vision possible.

The name Mayhemic Tribulation was originally the title of a demo by Sadis, a two-man Singapore death-thrash band which existed in the late 80s and early 90s.

The guitarist of Sadis, Sheihk Jahedden, was once fined by a traffic cop for headbanging while crossing the road in Singapore in 1990. Bo Skullbanger sought the ‘blessings’ of Jahedden to use both the title and the story as a Chugga Ritual song.
