Archive material and source history

Ruiner formed in New York City with Augustine Kofie on bass and vocals and John Beauvais on guitar and vocals. Their first album, "Hell Is Other People," came out in 2013, followed by "A Pearl in the Abyss" in 2015. The band's sound has been described as noise rock and post-punk.

One of their tracks, "40 Miles North," is a slower, atmospheric song that deals with isolation. Other songs in their catalog include "A Bridge Too Many" and "Bottom Line: Fuck You." They released two more albums, "Line of Light" in 2017 and "One Light Burning" in 2019.

Drummer Zachary Barocas has been part of the lineup. Their lyrics have sometimes drawn criticism for being confrontational, but they've kept making music on their own terms.
