Poison Ruin sign to Relapse, announce new album Harvest

Philadelphia dark punk outfit Poison Ruin have signed to Relapse and announced a new album. On April 14, the group will release new album Harvest, as well as reissuing their self-titled 2021 album. Today they’ve shared the title track, which you can check out below.

“I’ve always found fantasy tropes to be incredibly evocative,” said vocalist/guitarist Mac Kennedy in a press release, “that said, even though they are a set of symbols that seem to speak to most people of our generation, they are often either apolitical or co-opted for incredibly backwards politics.”

Poison Ruin’s self-titled LP is featured on our list of 20 Great Albums from 2021 You Might Have Missed.
