The two components of bass and drums are bound together so tight on Of Ruin that they resemble a singular gnarled entity, kneading together groove and melody like putty in the palms of their hands, with explosive results. Intrinsically heavy and elastically supercharged, London duo Ghold create a strain of viscous rock that is as plainly devastating as it is capricious, pushing down the scales to achieve an ever heavier outcome. The wealth of ideas presented by Paul Antony and Alex Wilson on Of Ruin surpass the imaginations of the majority, and it's easy to see why Terrorizer tipped them as one to watch for 2015. The alchemical duo fuses elements of power violence, doom, gloom, and heavy rock with enchanting vocal incantations. Since their inception in 2012, Ghold have been steadily amassing fans of their filth jams from countless shows performing alongside the likes of Yob, Pallbearer, Stephen O'Malley, and Ă…rabrot. Of Ruin was mastered by James Plotkin. The CD and LP artwork feature different paintings by Alex Virji.
