Poison Ruin’s highly anticipated album ‘Harvest‘ follows the release of their S/T debut which spread like wildfire throughout the punk and DIY community throughout the past 2 years.

The Philadelphian band quickly amassed a following for their lo-fi, catchy metaphoric revolts that stab at the pulsing heart of what it means to live under the permanent midnight of contemporary life. ‘Harvest’ gazes at the world with a sense of grave seriousness, its stare softened only by the alluring seduction of a dream world’s open-ended possibility. Its songs move with a type of uncanny confidence, assembling an array of references to past styles and sensibilities that collapse in on one another, congealing into a truly unique sonic landscape. Just ahead of its release, Poison Ruin share their melodic thrasher, ‘Torture Chamber’ which questions the limits and conviction of one’s own beliefs: “What is a truth for which you’d die? And what are the words that could set you free?” With ‘Harvest‘, Poison Ruin aligns their sonic palette to their godless, medieval-inflected aesthetic symbolism, creating a record which strikes with an assured sense of blackened harmony.
