"Thoughts Of Ruin" is a Chicago-based metalcore act known for blending bone-crushing breakdowns with melodic introspection. Formed in 2015, the band built a reputation through relentless Midwest touring and a DIY ethos, channeling raw energy into releases like *Reclaim the Throne* (2020) and recent singles *Anticitizen* and *40 Hours of Pain*. Their sound marries metallic hardcore aggression with anthemic hooks, often exploring themes of personal resilience and societal decay through visceral lyrics. While maintaining a fiercely independent streak, they've shared stages with acts like Kublai Khan TX and Varials, earning respect for their no-frills intensity both on record and in sweaty basement shows.
