Ireland’s FOR RUIN – New Single “In Vain” Streaming; Relapse EP Out In April
March 17, 2021, 3 years ago
Irish metal band For Ruin will release their digital only four track EP, Relapse, on April 1, 2021 on Spotify, Apple Music, Bandcamp, and all other common streaming platforms. The first digital single from the EP In Vain will be released on March 17, 2021. Lyric videos for the single and all EP tracks will be available upon release at the band’s YouTube channel.
Founding member John Murphy reignited the band’s spark over the past 2-3 years, writing a wide range of new material. On completion of a home studio renovation, he began to refine and record songs intended for For Ruin as well the doom metal band he is active in, The Grief (whose debut EP’s and full-length were both released in 2020).
Eight For Ruin songs were recorded and performed by Murphy at The Barn and the first of which was the Elapse EP - this second EP Relapse completes the release of the eight songs marking the return of the band to creativity.
The eight songs have been mastered by Marko Tervonen (The Crown) during August 2020 at Studio-MT, in Sweden. Artwork for both EP’s comes from Ken Coleman (Morbid Angel, The Cranberries).
