«I never listened to an album like this before. In fact, I never even listened to THIS album. Never heard of the band either. Also, I never said any of this. Who the hell am even I?»

AT THE APOGEE

The third and last single of our upcoming LP is here!

Drawn by eerie forces and drifting through voracious galaxies - At The Apogee is a song about being lost in space, drifting away from earth, shying away from humanity, family, friends and fading memories of oneself - and being redeemed only by staring into the boiling sun.

WE ALL GOT IT COMING

The second single of our upcoming album is out now! Enjoy before it comes to get you!

Doom is coming. No matter what you do, it will end in death and sadness - but it's alright, we're all in the same boat facing the same end. Don't obsess over it - it won't change a thing.
We all got it coming.

TIME UNUSED

We're so happy to release the first single of our upcoming CREATURE. Here is TIME UNUSED - a song about loneliness, wasted days, not living up to your own expectations of yourself. About drinking and smoking away the pain in the hopes of waking up your muse, only to realise that you wasted more time doing nothing worth anything. Fun!

NEW ALBUM CREATURE COMING SOON

The time has finally come for THE RUINS to release their 3rd studio album. It will be louder, harder and, yes, shorter than any other RUINS album released ever. First single out in December 2019, album in spring 2020. Keep an ear out!

ABOUT

When The Ruins formed in 2007 as an acoustic folk trio, little did they know that by 2019 they'd be hammering out grungy, distorted rock tunes as a five piece band, combining all the different genres and influences the band members are inspired by. Powerful melancholy songs about the wasteful, pointless and boring ways we spend our lives, hallucinogenic travels through space and time, death and the devil fill their upcoming album CREATURE. Finally, the loud and rocking live band has a fitting representation on disc.

Check us out on Spotify, iTunes or whatever other thing you like to use to stream stuff.
