Poison Ruïn announce new album ‘Hymns from the Hills’

POISON RUÏN have announced a brand new album!

The Philadelphia-based post-punk/hardcore outfit have announced their new album, Hymns from the Hills, set for release on April 3rd via Relapse Records. The upcoming album is the follow-up to 2023’s Härvest.

The album was mixed by Jonah Falco [FUCKED UP, CAREER SUICIDE] and mastered by Arthur Rizk [POWER TRIP, BLOOD INCANTATION, CAVALERA]. Kennedy also contributed to the mixing process, inserting grittier tape‑recorded segments to preserve the rough tonal character of earlier recordings.

Alongside the album announcement, the band have released the lead single Eidolon. Speaking about the track, frontman, lyricist and guitarist Mac Kennedy states, Eidolon is about being stuck in a broken reality, a cog in a fate-machine doomed to play out the same cursed loop until it fully breaks down. The ones who had the power to affect change have abandoned the scene. Their phantoms loom down in quiet disapproval of the disaster that slowly plays out beneath – grim reminders of what could have, but will not be.”
