MY RUIN Hard At Work Recording New Album
November 6, 2009MY RUIN — the Los Angeles based rock duo featuring lead screamer Tairrie B and husband/guitarist Mick Murphy — entered the studio last month to begin recording its sixth full-length album, "Ghosts and Good Stories", for an early 2010 release via Tiefdruck-Musik.
Commented Tairrie: "We are happy to announce that recording is going amazingly well. We are working in NoHo [North Hollywood] at Entourage Studios with engineer Josh Lynch who is also co-producing our new record with Mick [Murphy]. The drum tracking is now complete for our 13 songs and they sound rockin'.
"Entourage Studio kind of reminds us both of recording at Grandmaster [where we did our 'A Prayer Under Pressure of Violent Anguish' album back in 2000] or Sound City where Mick and I have both recorded separately in the past. It's got that killer old-school warm '70s vibe about it and we are having a blast. Josh is so talented and funny, he knows his shit and is great to work with. Everything feels almost effortless and laid back this time unlike our last album recording session which was a bit stressful due to my car accident the night before it began.
"We've now got eight songs complete and they sound massive already with just the drums and guitar and without the bass yet added into the mix.
"Mick and I have decided to take our time to create this new album and enjoy the process instead of rushing through it like we usually do. We plan to continue through November and hopefully deliver our masters and art to the label in December so we can set things up for an April 2010 release, as discussed. We have also been doing a bit of documenting with both video and photos to post with our updates and we plan to put together a separate short film which will include in-depth interviews with Mick and I regarding the making of our album for the enhanced cd and bit more of a behind-the-scenes look at our new songs."
