"My Ruin is a family affair and their new baby has fangs. All according to plan. The offspring in question is Ghosts And Good Stories, the sixth album from a band that are considered cult favourites and underdogs by the press – often in the same breath – and revered by those that have taken My Ruin to heart. Those fans may be surprised to learn that vocalist / founder Tairrie B. Murphy and guitarist / multi-instrumentalist / husband Mick Murphy came close to putting the band on ice following the Throat Full Of Heart album from 2008. Following some much needed soul-searching it was decided instead that the world could do with a re-booted kick in the teeth, resulting in an album that has the potential to elevate My Ruin’s status to new heights amongst the metal-loving legions. "
I recently had the pleasure of speaking with Carl Begai of Brave Words Bloody Knuckles about My Ruin's new album and a few other things on our minds at the time which turned into a very interesting conversation and gave us a lot to talk about so he decided to break it up into 2 parts. The second segment will be posted later this week but for now, we have posted the first installment of 2 pages in our press section for you to check out. Thanks to Mr Begai for taking the time to do such an interesting interview with me!
