about

More choice session material. This sees both more diversification in style, and advances to new headier jamming. Now Ruin are really coming into their own with a distinctive angle on the trip-rock genre that you can identify uniquely as them. With dual groove guitars and the addition of organ and other instruments, this is no mere slight return to anything really, ending with the awesome storming War Neuro'sis.
