BIOGRAPHY
On January 2012 Grimblade dead, with new names and new members they set a new course and new with energy we carry the band on. So Denis (ex Grimblade, Forlorn Tales, Under Sanitys Bane) bound the new formation Order to Ruin. Melodic Death Metal with influences of Dark Tranquillity, Hypocrisy and some sort of Power Metal was the way. With Simon Buse, the 2nd guitarist they wrote the first songs for the first ep “Underworld Path”. In May Julian (Wrath) comes to the band as a shouter. 5 songs are ready and were produced by their own. Order to Ruin were an only studio based project, with no live activities. They take studio session bass player and programmed the drums. First reactions for this EP were great, so they want to carry this thing on…
On November 2012 after some blood, sweat and tears they´ve written 6 new tracks and one new recorded song from the EP and one intro. The Album was called “Reborn in Grimness”. Here are some new influences in their sound, a little bit of power metal, a little bit of black metal. All fans from Finland to England could have some fun with this.
On May 2013 after the last Album “Reborn in Grimness” there is the time for something new… for raw energy, more thrash, more death metal. The power metal energy is now gone to their other band Under Sanitys Bane. They have a new shouter, a new Bass player and 5 new songs. So welcome our 2nd EP” I am death”…
On Mai 2014 after some good reviews from “I am death” and some tour offers they decided that Order to Ruin stays as studio project, because they only make music for fun that they love. But this is still their hobby, and they hope to carry this on. After Markus Hosch (Bass) and Tobias Müller (Vocals) have quitt, because of rare time, Simon Buse plays also the bass parts and Jens Schönfelder is our new shouter. The drums are done by Mirko Vanderveen of our friends Supreme Carnage. This a years is gone and they have their 2nd album, 8 new tracks, in the style of oldschool melodic death metal. So here it comes, the new Album “The Loss of Distress”.
On November 2014 the story continues... 6 month are gone, but now there´s the time for new material. After fast flowing ideas and the lust to do more, here we go for the third full length album from Order to Ruin. They work very hard on these 9 new songs and they´re proud to serve you these ones. Its still melodic death/thrash metal, they want you to have fun with this and to bang your head. They don´t need a label, they still working on their own. Order to Ruin is for us a view back to the glorious 90´s, the Birth of Melodic Death Metal!!!
On April 2015 after very good reviews to “The Path ton of Atrocity” they sat down to writer “The Book OF Nemesis”. Whether we outdid the predecessor decide, they have this time more value on classical Metal Solos. The Time of 90's of the Death Metal however still remains. To keep balanced now and then something Thrash, a little Heavy and something Blackmetal around the Matereial. Unfortunately after temporal problems Tobi (singer) had to leave the band. Its successor became Mike Seidel (Fear resound Torture), both and singers, and also new bassist.
Germany's number one in playing the Gothenburg styled melodic Death Metal, ORDER TO RUIN have self-released their album number five called “Where Future Shadows Unfold” on May 11, 2016 . Their fast speed in releasing new albums bears always the risk to release unproper material but the two guys Denis and Mike really are so straight and focused on what they do that again they have released another album above average.
Their style on “Where Future Shadows Unfold” remains mostly unchanged compared to their previous release “The Book Of Nemesis” but the amount of solos and killer guitar leads have increased once again and it seems, they want to become the real IRON MAIDEN of melodic Death Metal. Also the programming of the drum computer has been perfected and sounds very dynamic and varying but also with enough power and fast double-bass fundaments. Worth to mention are also Mike's vocals somewhere between grunts and screams which really are varying and well-fitting.
