RUINS from Tokyo Japan and ZU from Rome Italy have known each other, been around each other, and toured together since the late 90’s. Both bands are devoted to creating idiosyncratic forms that push music to its limits and break any genre and style boundary (you can call it prog-metal but it’s just scratching the surface). It was long overdue that they would conspire and collaborate at some point in history. So Ruins founder and permanent member, legendary drummer & vocalist Yoshida Tatsuya, and both Zu founders and permanent members Luca T Mai and Massimo Pupillo (respectively sax and electric bass) have formed the new creature RUINSZU and will tour Europe together for the first time in Spring 2024. They will play live both Ruins and Zu material and also new music that they started to write.

Crushing Occult Drone Doom Sickness
FFO: Dark Buddha Rising, SUN(O))), OM, GNOD, Darsombra

The result of these three wandering spirits being let loose in a converted barn in the Finnish countryside near Jyväskylä is ‘Lahbryce’,
the new and surprising Sum Of R album, the most disconcerting and colossal work the band has ever committed to tape by far.
Mixed by Victor Bullok, aka V. Santura (Triptykon, Dark Fortress), it will be released this late fall on the Belgium record label Consouling Sounds and it will turn the underground upside down.
