Almost 6 years after the rise of Massmord, they lost another member of the band. One bass player short and restless. Massmord started to talk about finding another bass player and pretty soon they decided to go with an old friend of the band, Maria. With only three original band members left, a fresh start was something the band could use.
After some time of heavy contemplations, the band soon came to agree on a new name that they fellt suited them and the music more than Massmord ever did. Now, reborn as Future Ruins, they are ready to pick up where Massmord left off!

| This is a crushing debut full-length by FUTURE RUINS, a five-piece metallic crust outfit hailing from various parts of Sweden (Skåne/Göteborg/Stockholm). There are similarities from their previous incarnation of MASSMORD, however along with the name change came a more complex shift in songwriting. The result is an invariably tight hardcore punk/metal hybrid painted across a lyrically dystopian backdrop. This a wall of crash laden d-beat crust and some remarkably dark and melodic breakdowns all moving at a breakneck pace. Recorded and Mastered by Ulf Blomberg at Hobo Studios, this has a very classic Swedish death metal production sound while retaining some essential rawness. A co-operative release with Halvfabrikat (SWE), Social Bomb (DE), and Aborted Society (US). |
