Evolution drives longevity. Within the Ruins relentlessly

push forward, incinerating complacency and innovating

out of it's ashes. The Western Massachusetts quartet raze

convention with a sonic sensory onslaught anchored

by polyrhythmic bludgeoning, head-nodding grooves,

viscerally evocative vocals, and vivid storytelling.

Their controlled chaos has resulted in tens of millions of

streams (a rarity for acts this uncompromisingly heavy),

packed houses on tour, and widespread acclaim courtesy

of Alternative Press, American Songwriter, Loudwire, Metal

Injection, Phoenix New Times, and many more.

Now, they continue to evolve on their seventh full-length

o ering, Phenomena II [MNRK Heavy]. "When you listen

to us, we hope you feel like you found some fresh metal,"

notes Joe. "After doing anything for a long time, it's easy

to get stuck in your ways. So, we always try to present

something you haven't heard before-and you aren't going

to get anywhere else."
