California-based MY RUIN recently released a video for the song 'Tennessee Elegy', taken from their forthcoming A Southern Revelation, which will be available for free download on December 7th. Check it out below.

The new video, which features Luciano Ferrea on bass and new drummer Isaac Lee (who is the latest addition to the My Ruin familia) was co-directed by vocalist Tairrie B along with former My Ruin drummer Marcelo Palomino of MFP Film Productions, and Tor Burrows of Notorious Design. Marcelo also filmed the video and handled all the camera work while the editing and special effects were done by Tor Burrows who created My Ruin’s previous two videos for ‘Long Dark Night’ and ‘Excommunicated’ from their 2010 album Ghosts and Good Stories.

"We pride ourselves on being a DIY band and have no label supporting us, so we really had no budget for this video. It was truly a labor of rock love and faith in friendships that helped to create ‘Tennessee Elegy’ and there was a lot of team work behind the scenes,” according to Tairrie B. “Marcelo has been a close friend of mine for many years and was also my original drummer when I started out in my first band MANHOLE in the early '90s. We’ve wanted to collaborate on a video for My Ruin for a while but it never seemed to be the right time until now. Celo is based in LA and we had a lot of fun shooting the video with him. Tor is based in the UK and there is the 8 hour time difference so we have learned to utilize Skype and Dropbox as our way of working together. She is a longtime fan turned friend who really understands our band and music deeply. Her attention to detail in bringing our songs to life by the use of interesting effects and iconic imagery with me is truly inspiring. The videos we create together feel very sacred and timeless which is also how we like to think of our albums."
