AGE OF RUIN
Age of Ruin has definitely paid their dues, earning every ounce of the heaviest crown one band could carry. In 2019, the core horsemen of the Age of Ruin (Benjamin Swan, and Daniel and Christopher Fleming) added Hendrik Osinga and Casey Flanagan to the ranks. Under the production of Mike Schleibaum (Darkest Hour), Age of Ruin honed their tone in Mike’s Riff Dojo, creating an undeniable masterpiece of metal. Their punk and metal roots hold firm, and their thrash tendencies are on full display, a new dawn in the Age of Ruin.
