Ruined Conflict is an electronic music duo formed in Cleveland, Ohio, in 2011 by Xavier Morales and Eric Holzer, both seasoned producers with over a decade of experience in electronic music. Their sound evolved from industrial-alt-rock layers on their debut album *Armor* to polished future-pop and synthpop, blending hook-heavy melodies with introspective lyrics. After catching the attention of Germany’s Infacted Recordings, they released four albums and two EPs, refining a signature mix of atmospheric synths, hard-hitting rhythms, and vocally driven storytelling that challenges listeners to “live for yourself, not others.”
Known for energetic live performances and collaborations like their remix of “Hate Myself,” their fifth album *Valediction* (2019) marked their most personal work yet, tackling themes of politics, humanity, and self-reflection. With a growing fanbase, they continue pushing boundaries in electronic music while staying rooted in their Cleveland origins.
