Within The Ruins Enter The Studio

Natives to Westfield, Massachusetts, this quintet is armed with a unique take on blending tech and metal together; writing music that set their band apart from the numerous metal bands today.

Within The Ruins have mastered their technique of bringing breakdowns, riffs, tempo and a dash of personality together in order to form one cohesive entity. They describe their sound as "loud, energetic, interesting and fresh" and cite bands like Metallica and As I Lay Dying as their early influences.

It would be easy to attribute their unique sound to the countless hours WITHIN THE RUINS dedicates to practicing each week. In order to perfect their technical styles, the members practice every day. "You do it long enough and you're going to see results," noted founding member and guitarist Joe Cocchi. "We constantly try to take our music to the next level, challenging ourselves as well as the listener." This mindset helps WITHIN THE RUINS stay focused as they devote most of their time to evolving their sound, growing as musicians and building their fan base.
