◄| Throat Full Of Heart / Press Quotes |►

"This is rock and roll for the soul. The passion is palpable."

- Rock Propaganda 101
--------------------------------------
"Iconic female fronted hate metal crew back from the dead once more. One after the other they come. each track an unsubtle battering ram. If you expected a sedative dosed Tairrie B to sound less than lethal following her recovery from a horrific car accident, think again. My ruin don't do anything by halves. It's all or nothing and you'll either love or hate this fearsome return. We'll bet the former."

- Steve Beebee | Kerrang!

"Tairrie B has got a lot of anger ready to spit out on her listeners, so it’s time for a brand new album. Ten new songs will tear down your bedroom walls. Forty minutes of aggressive excitement will certainly please the blackest souls out there. A great opportunity to escape from the normal day to day life. 'Me Without You' and opener 'Ready For Blood' have got the perfect recipe for another successful MY RUIN album. Loud riffs developed from the early BLACK SABBATH era, topped with the ultra aggressive vocal chords by Tairrie B herself. 'Religiosity' is quite heavy and it ends like VINNIE VINCENT’s “Invasion”, only shorter. While in 'Slide You the Horn', the band reminds me of CATHEDRAL. And in 'Not This Time', the fury is unleashed to the max. 'Dragon Steel' is a mighty fine title for a true metal anthem and I can tell you that this is one of the best songs on the album with Tairrie in a leading role. Religion is the main theme here, but MY RUIN is definitely not a religious band. They just use religion as an outlet for writing lyrics. 'Nothing Is Sacred' says it all in a way. The CD closes with 'Through The Wound' - a black as night, doomy piece, that rounds off this magnificent new release in a perfect way. This new album will definitely appeal to black souled doomsters with an open mind for aggressive, screaming vocals by the queen of screamo herself, Miss Tairrie B. Mick Murphy is Tairrie’s partner-in-crime and he’s definitely a hot guitar player. Just listen to the steaming licks and groovy rhythms, he laid down on this album. With this album, you also get a bonus DVD, featuring two video clips for “Ready For Blood” and “Religiosity”, as well as some behind the scene footage. Grab this opportunity, while you can!"

"Most of the screaming vocals on TFOH were recorded with Miss B quite literally in agony, her raw arm bandaged and slung up. The result is more brutal but surprisingly more upbeat than anything My Ruin have done before - and that includes the blistering doom vibes of 2005's 'A Brutal Language'. A hefty dose of Southern rock, an unforgiving slab of hardcore and more hard rocking melodies than you can shake a stick at. For anyone who thought My Ruin were just another generic female-fronted metal band, stick 'TFOH' in your player and prepare to be surprised. From the opening thunder of 'Ready For Blood' to the sudden ending of 'Through The Wound' this band just gets better and better."

"My Ruin have delivered their most brutal and uncompromising songs yet."

- Hard Rock House
--------------------------------------
"My Ruin is the Great White Shark of metal. Purveyors of the deadliest of purpose powered by an almost robotic sense of tunnel vision. Undeterred by outside opinions or social influences, you can be guaranteed they will follow their mission to the inevitable conclusion. That coda is the expulsion of music from their creative well sources. My Ruin doesn't just like to indulge in some tearing and shredding. They HAVE to. Their very DNA dictates that. You are more than welcome to join them. You also have the option to oppose them. Just stay the f**k out of their way. You see, with every new record, the band becomes like a prize fighter locked in a gym pumping weights all day. Muscle builds on muscle until the fighting machine is an unstoppable force. My Ruin's new CD Throat Full of Heart is a nuclear right hook that combines the culmination of years of experience along with their unquenchable thirst for release through the power of metal. The band's centerpiece, Tairrie B, howls with a fury that dwarfs all her previous efforts, no doubt pistol-whipped by the pain of the injury suffered from a serious car accident during recording. As always, the intimate nature of the lyrics draws in their followers like parishioners to the church of Tairrie B, and the minister does not disappoint. Throat Full of Heart is a convincing case study in overcoming adversity and coming out on top. There is an old saying, "What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger." That is amply evident on this record. It's tough to imagine My Ruin sounding any better than this."

- Morley Seaver | Anti Music
--------------------------------------
"Musically this is an album of crunching riffs which show to be more than Sabbath-style metal with a few flashier solos. Vocally though, the young lady providing the words, one Tairrie B , is very much an acquired taste. Certainly a very forceful frontwoman. She shouts, screams and rants her words out in a style that makes Brian Johnson sound like Sinatra and sees her a potential candidate for a sponsorship from Strepsils lozenges. With that said, it has a ferocity in the singing that Dickenson or Dio can't deliver."

- Bill Leslie | PeaceManDog
--------------------------------------
"Just as My Ruin were due to go in to the studio to record their latest album, Throat Full of Heart, vocalist Tairrie B was involved in a very serious car accident that almost lost her her arm and her life. With ‘Through the Wound’ claiming that, “On the other side of the scars, the way out is through the wound”, the raw emotion is clearly audible in Tairrie’s voice and the pain that she went through from her accident is clearly projected through the music. Nowadays it’s difficult to find this much passion, with more and more bands opting for the easy route of just banging-out a few killer riffs and screaming like a little girl over the top of it. Not to say that Mick Murphy doesn’t play killer riffs, he definitely does and his are more honest, more natural and more brutal! Harking back to the classic metal bands from way-back-when, with Black Sabbath being a prime example, My Ruin put their own modern spin on the best of the best and Throat Full of Heart perfectly documents this. With one of the strongest opening tracks in the history of albums, ‘Ready For Blood’ packs a punch of real rock ‘n’ roll raunch. Not letting-up for a second, This all-killer-no-filler offering from LA’s finest is proof that rock ‘n’ roll ain’t dead: it’s still brutal; it still hurts; it doesn’t get much better than My Ruin."

"Mick Murphy’s guitar kills you, then Tairrie B’s voice flays your dead flesh. That’s how Los Angeles’ My Ruin have rolled for nearly a decade. Through several albums and quite a few drummers and bassists; that’s how they roll on 'Throat Full of Heart.' And it’s one of my favorite punishments this year. Murphy’s axwork is indomitable: the belly-slug riff and lunatic lead on 'Memento Mori'; for instance, or the sexy, shoulder-shaking figure he loops out while riding LeChevalier’s wide-open high hat on 'Nothing Is Sacred.' And what can you say about Tairrie B, who plunged into recording this album while recovering from an auto accident that nearly ripped off her arm? Expressing and transcending pain is what her soul-scouring roar is all about."

- Greg Burke | Metal Jazz
--------------------------------------
"Their fifth full-length studio album, 'Throat Full Of Heart' sees My Ruin back in fine form, making a brutally powerful noise that perfectly articulates & accomplishes the furious sermons of Tairrie B.The history of female performers in the metal genres does little to deflect accusations that heavy metal is (at best) subconsciously sexist and (at worst) deliberately misogynistic. With a few notable exceptions, the women of rock have been used as eye-candy selling points, their images exploited by the industry an uncritical audience. Tairrie B is undoubtedly one of those exceptions, and has used My Ruin as a vehicle for not only defying the expectations of the industry but speaking out against them as well. Musically, My Ruin are heavy enough to put them well beyond the mainstream. 'Throat Full Of Heart" is no exception, sounding much like the band's preceding material but more polished & focused.Mid-paced bass-and-guitar mega riffs throb and chug alongside a rock solid rhythm from the drumkit with elements of thrash and old-school metal at the core, with a hint of bluesy stoner vibes mixed in. There's a raw and dirty southern-fried solo work from Mick Murphy, skillfully restrained and never resorting to fret-wank frippery; in between, harmonic pinches and lead flourishes add movement and dynamics to the My Ruin sonic juggernaut with one man easily filling the space that two lesser guitarists might cover between them. But the true starr of the show is Miss B herself, of course - and 'Throat Full Of Heart' contains ten tracks of what sounds like the exorcism of personal demons. Tairrie has a gut-wrenching screaming style that makes a lot of male singers sound like wimps. Not because she's louder but because you can hear that every word was written in blood and tears before being performed. Tairrie B means every word she says, and that commitment - that channeled rage & fury - enables her lyrics to lash out with the strength of ten men. The music industry isn't the only target for Miss B's vitriol, however, religious piety finds itself in the firing line a couple of times, and there must be a few former lovers who are well aware of that - in Tairrie's hands, at least - the microphone is mightier than the sword. It's great to know there's a band for female metal fans to identify with positively. 'Throat Full Of Heart' provides those girls - and guys as well with ten savage new anthems of defiance."
