Ritual Howls conjures up a fascinating storm with their sixth album, Ruin - Green, pressed on lush green vinyl as enigmatic as their sound. From the haunting pulse of “Follow the Sun,” with its reverberating guitar echoes, to the sinuous lure of “A Safe Haven,” the Detroit trio lures you into their dark, industrial lair where post-punk shadows dance.

After more than a decade of captivating journey, Ritual Howls brilliantly mixes goth, industrial and vestiges of rave culture in a sonic experience that hits the senses. With the rhythmic prowess of drummer Chris Samuels, the fuzz-laden grooves of bassist Ben Saginaw and the ethereal guitar lines of Paul Bancell, Ruin emerges as a labyrinth both physical and emotional. Bancell's move to Los Angeles injected new energy into their collaboration, despite the distance, reaffirming their unrivaled cohesion with the help of sound engineer Adam Cox.

Much of Ruin's magic is born from their unique collaborative process. Samuels' inventive rhythms lay the foundation, with melodies that intertwine like whispers in a shadowed hallway. The kinetic “A Safe Haven” and the driving force of other standout tracks reveal a band that thrives on contrasts – raw but mysterious, dark but undeniably magnetic.

Ruin - Green is not just an album; it’s an immersive odyssey. With its deep green pressing, the vinyl captures the essence of Ritual Howls' dark enchantment. Whether you're a seasoned aficionado or a newcomer entranced by their allure, this piece adds an essential chapter to their mysterious and ever-evolving story.
