Don’t miss The Family Ruin out on the Moving On Tour

We brought you our coverage of Asking Alexandria as they made a stop in San Francisco for The Moving On Tour. Now, we can’t wait to tell you about the opening band out on the tour, The Family Ruin. We have been featuring this amazing rock band from the UK all year long. We brought you our review of their kick ass album, Dearly Departed which was released in September and we couldn’t wait to finally catch them perform live.

One thing is for sure, they delivered an amazing kick ass set at the Regency Ballroom. I love it when a band that I really enjoy listening to can match the same intensity of their music as they do live on stage. This is one band that definitely has no problem conquering that battle. They blew me away and had me eagerly wanting to see them again soon! Check out more photos of their set by our Rockin Ryan:

From the moment they hit the stage and until they walked off to greet fans at their merch booth, they captivated the crowd with their high energy rock. To get to see them perform live my favorites from their album like Let’s Go, Let It Burn, and Bring Out Your Dead. The crowd quickly fell in love with them and you know that many concert goers left with The Family Ruin being their new favorite band!

The time has arrived! The UK bad ass band, The Family Ruin have released their album, Dearly Departed on KBB Records.  In honor of the release, we are pleased to repost our review of this must have album!  This is one album that we have been so excited for you to all hear. It is definitely one killer album filled with high energy tracks and a great display of musicianship by these five guys.  Drummer Dom White had this to say of the release,“We’re so excited to finally unleash Dearly Departed to the world! This album is all about living life on the edge, picking yourself up no matter how many times you get knocked down and partying like there’s not a care in the world. We hope you all love it as much as we do – we can’t wait to bring it to the stage later this year! Welcome to the family!” 

* * ALBUM REVIEW * *

The Family Ruin have really been garnering a lot of well deserved attention since singing with KBB Records, the new record label of Asking Alexandria’s Ben Bruce and co-manager Kyle Borman. The Family Ruin have a very fresh new sound complete with hard and heavy riffs blended with infectious harmonies, where they blend their metal and alternative influences with melodic hard rock. There is something for everyone in their sound. Think about a mix of Avenged Sevenfold with Escape the Fate. Dearly Departed is definitely one of our Top Albums of the Year for 2014!

The album starts right off with the fist-in-the-air chant of the rockin track Bring Out Your Dead.Hang on tight, you are about to take an incredible ride fueled with guitar heavy riffs, powerful vocals and get instantly hooked.  Things get kicked up a notch with the Leech which has a Bullet For My Valentine style intro taking you into a M. Shadows vibe and even a hint of raspy vocals like Josh Todd in the chorus. This song just bleeds energy and is definitely one of my favorites. Of course, you will find me saying that about every song because this album features 14 outstanding tracks. It is nice to see a band put out a full album with songs that are varied in their own style and don’t blend together. I am loving this album and it has been a mainstay on my regular playlist for a few weeks now!

Cirque Du Sin has some amazing whirling guitars that grab your attention. Another one of my fave songs is Let’s Go which I can easily see make it’s fast rise on the Active Rock chart and onto the airwaves. Here is the lyric video for Let’s Go:

Us Against the World has a cinematic intro and powerful vocals with emotionally driven lyrics that create such emotion. The song seamlessly blends an alternative edge into the hard rock style, another great stand out track. The ambient ethereal intro of Battle for the Sun transitions you into the face paced frenetic drums that I love. The vocals and battle style lyrics create such an intensity and energy that takes you to the edge.

Haunting highlights the amazing vocals that capture a true rawness and vulnerability and the mysterious backing vocals create such an illusive presence. Broken Hands once again has you appreciating the musicianship of the band, as they blend their hard rock style with an alternative edge and in no way, does it seem forced. They flow easily with melodies and hooks.

Let It Burn was the first single they released and immediately caught everyone’s attention. It is a heavy hard rock track with fierce guitars, powerful vocals, precision drumming and solid bass lines. It was the perfect introduction for people to The Family Ruin. Check out the lyric video for the song here:

The intro on Where We Fall is just purely bad ass as you dance amid adrenaline filled vibe laced with a sweet melody. It is like a rush to your heart and the sigh after, all at once, really great track. Sonder is the crowning finale to the album as it gathers all of your emotions into a cathartic closure. It might be the last act for this album but will have you looking forward to more by The Family Ruin.

Local Santa Rosa band chosen in top 25 KBB Records Battle of the Bands!

KBB Records, the new label by Asking Alexandria’s Ben Bruce and Kyle Borman have announced their Battle of Bands finalists. Ben & Kyle received hundreds of submissions and handpicked 25 artists. You can now take a look at the list and vote to chose the 10 bands that will make it on the KBB Records Digital Summer Sampler! One Band will be win a record deal with KBB Records.

What has us really excited here at Music Junkie Press is that one of the bands on the list is our very own local band, A Hero To Fall. They are a post hardcore/ progressive rock band which is comprised of some very hard working members. These guys have the music, the passion and the drive to succeed in the tough music industry.  Check out their song, Disappear here:

 

We had the chance for a brief interview with A Hero To Fall and are pleased to bring you that here:

* * * * * * * * * * * *

Music Junkie Press:  Congratulations on making it to the top 25 Finalists for the KBB Records Battle of the Bands! How was it when you learned you made it to the 25 finalists category?

A Hero To Fall:  We were shocked and excited when we learned that we made he top 25. I clicked on a link to see if our band had made it, and sure enough, our band picture was posted with a button to vote underneath it. There were hundreds of submissions, so it felt amazing to know that we made the cut.

Music Junkie Press:   Tell us about A Hero To Fall and what this record deal would mean for you?

A Hero To Fall:  We have always had a hard time describing our genre and sound because it tends to be more dynamic, but we usually tell people that we are an Alternative/Post-Punk band. This Record deal would be truly amazing, but even if we don’t win, we will still pursue a career in music! We have always sought to make the best music we possibly can and making a living by doing what we love is what we strive for.

Music Junkie Press:  How did you guys form your band?

A Hero To Fall:  Well, we are based out of Santa Rosa, California and we have been together for roughly two years.  Andrew and I (Michael) have been playing guitar together since 8th grade. We actually found our drummer John on craigslist and we totally lucked out because he is an amazing drummer. Finding a bassist was an incredibly long and drawn out process. I can’t even remember how many bassists we went through before finding Maurice ( also on Craigslist), but we are glad we did because he is a great guy and awesome bassist.   We make it a priority to incorporate elements from all of our favorite genres when creating music, that way everyone gets a say and we can create something truly unique. This band is really a group effort and we work together on just about everything.

Music Junkie Press:   Do you have any upcoming shows you would like to share with our audience?

A Hero To Fall:  Yes!!! On May 31st we will be playing with our buddies in Awoken Shadows, and their friends in Cherri Bomb at the Assembly in Sacramento. We will also be playing the following day, June 1st, at the DNA Lounge in San Francisco with the same lineup.

Music Junkie Press:  If you could create your dream lineup, what three bands would you have on the bill with A Hero To Fall?

A Hero To Fall: Ooh that is a tough one! Well I would probably have to just name the members’ favorite bands, so probably Rise Against, Stick To Your Guns, and Bring me The Horizon.

Music Junkie Press: Lastly, is there something you would like to share with our audience?

A Hero To Fall: We would like to say thanks for supporting our music and music in general! Also, thanks to our buddies in Awoken Shadows, they are rad and have helped us out a lot, so check them out! Also, we just finished a full length music video and will be announcing a tour soon, so keep an eye out for that!

* * * * * * * * * * * *

So now that you got to know a bit more about A Hero To Fall, make sure to head over to KBB Records and cast your vote! Voting ends May 26th and you can only vote once! VOTE HERE:
