Ippocalyptica Have you encountered great war metal (that combination of bestial and abrasive death and black metal) so far in 2023? No? That is quite okay because the drought is over now that Ruin Lust has finally cracked the code on their fourth full-length album and realised the full potential hinted at on their previous work! 31 minutes of ostentatious barbarism that deliver bone-crushing impact with subtle technical proficiency and WAY more dynamics than war metal is known for, Dissimulant is a statement. Favorite track: Purge.

𝙑𝙖𝙚𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙤𝙪𝙨 I love death metal, and war metal, and I especially love death metal with war metal flavor.

This album takes the best of both and makes a wonderfully violent listen

Darknight Death metal head smasher is how I would describe this record by Ruin Lust but really, I wouldn't have expected anything less. Favorite track: Clinamen.

about

Having dropped their third album ‘Choir of Babel’ in early 2020 just before the world shut down, the forces of pandemic did not succeed in silencing NYC’s Ruin Lust for good. Though confined to their fallout bunker, the band, with martial fervor, began work on what has now, three years later, emerged as their fourth album ‘Dissimulant’.

In the final phase of imperialist rot, Ruin Lust declares war against the festering delusions of a devolving species. The most withering aspects of modern Death Metal, Grinding War Metal and Black Metal’s more bestial tendencies compel this audial exorcism, poisoning the well like a bioweapon spread through open air, suffocating and contemptuous. By the time album closer ‘Chemical Wind’ is done all that remains are parched bones and desiccated shadows.

Barbarically pestilent yet compositionally deliberate, ‘Dissimulant’ casts a bitter pall and leaves an open wound on the Death Metal scene for 2023. A militant milestone in the Ruin Lust discography.

super duper good follow up to their first record, which is a modern death doom classic, here they went in a bit of a different and more ambitious direction joshuassites

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu

I'm kicking my own ass for somehow missing this when it released. Expertly arranged death metal with kick drums that could demolish a high-rise. zirtonic
