Metal Recon Scout Report - The Family Ruin
Tony S. June 16, 2015
Band: The Family Ruin
Venue: Summit Music Hall - Denver, Colorado
Show Date: April 17, 2015
Associated Acts: Mushroomhead and Doyle
Background: The Family Ruin is a heavy metal band hailing from York, UK. They were the opening act for Doyle (formerly of the Misfits) and Mushroomhead at the Summit Music Hall in Denver, Colorado. They are currently signed to Ben Bruce's (Asking Alexandria) new label - KBB RECORDS with Johnny Mennell as the lead Vocals, Craig Robinson on Guitar & Vocals, James Langley on Guitar, Josh Adamson on Bass, and Dom White on Drums. Their influences are Avenged Sevenfold, Papa Roach, Motley Crue, Escape the Fate.
Intel Report: Overall this band is very impressive and highly energetic onstage. Their sound is great, and Johnny's vocal range is impressive, the songs "Let it Burn" and "Let's Go" really showcase the band's overall performance and sound. There's no doubt why Ben Bruce signed these guys to KBB Records. If you have a chance, this is Definitely a band that everyone should go see live.
