 EXPLOSIVE Punk Rock w/ Attitude & Originality September 11, 2006

I have owned "Ruiner" for a while now and I just listened to it for the first time in months. I was blown away! I forgot how amazing this album is. Super melodic, raging punk rock with emotion and endless energy.
A WILHELM SCREAM make really awesome heartfelt music. "Ruiner" is an audio treat from start to finish. I highly recommend this album to any musicians! The musicianship is impressive and there is some very technical guitar work and nasty bass & drums. Add in multi-layered vocals and you have a delicious recipe for a good album. Most of these songs are fast, but there are some slower moments that provide a good contrast.
Listening to "Ruiner" is a raging rock & roll ride filled with super fast riffs, and punchy, quality drumming. After listening to such an explosive and wonderful album, I am in awe that so many crappy bands are still popular today. "Ruiner" has a very original sound and it is very necessary to your punk rock collection. This is the kind of album that you listen to straight through, and then listen to it again because it is so impressive.
If you are a fan of Hot Water Music, or Strike Anywhere you should definitely check out A WILHELM SCREAM.
simply amazing November 28, 2005

the word WOW is now spelled A-W-S. A Wilhelm Scream is a pounding, in your face punk band that rocks gloriously. Ruiner is a masterpiece of musicianship, vocals, and songwriting. Finally, a punk band without whiny vocals. The vocals are strong, punctuated, and fearless. I can't decide if this release or its predecessor Mute Print is better. I am definitely going to continue to pick up their other albums as well.
My personal favortites are, but are not limited to: The King is Dead, Killing It, The Pool, Me vs. Morissey in the Pretentiousness Contest, The Kids Can Eat a Bag of Dicks. HOWEVER, every song on this album is praiseworthy. Each flows seemlessly into the next.
If you like Hot Water Music then i'd say buy this. Also, if you like rock/metal/punk in general buy this.
Awesome August 29, 2006

This was easily the best punk offereing of 2005. Melodies mixed with the crispest guitar work going around and rock solid songwriting make this a must own.
Long live the scream - death to screamo!!

The riffs are face melting..... the melodies are mind boggling.... the vocals are soul wretching ... what more could you ask for a follow up to the best album of last year except ...ruiner...
they sound nothing like AFI. good riddance. minor threat. or H2O.
 Not quite as good as Mute Print, but still a great listen September 2, 2005

First of all, in response to the guy who reviewed this before me, they sound absolutely nothing like any one of those bands that you listed. I don't really understand where you get the idea that they sound remotely close to AFI, but whatever.
Anyway, Ruiner is one of the best punk albums to come out this year. It can appeal to listeners of many different genres, but mainly melodic hardcore fans and emo/screamo fans. Although i wouldn't classify them as an emo band, most of their lyrics are what many would call "typical emo lyrics".
If you liked Mute Print chances are you'll like Ruiner as well.
