Overview
Love Amongst Ruin is the brain child of Steve Hewitt, drummer and songwriter in the multi- million selling Placebo. As Love Amongst Ruin's frontman he takes the lead for the first time in what has already been described as "one of the most explosive live bands to come in 2010”
This multi-faceted rock band promises the crunch of a stone age queen, the crossover appeal of a parkful of linkins and the melodicism of the hardiest fighter of foos. Drop in twists of New Order/Depeche Mode electro-twangle, Can/Kasabian motorika, Cure atmospherics and hardcore Metallica riffage.
Steve Hewitt also served time at the stool of such diverse acts as The Boo Radleys, grit-rockers Breed, baggy chart stars K-Klass with whom he tasted huge global success, sharing the journey from post-Britpop indie hype band to multi-million selling international superstars with Placebo.
The self titled debut album is released on 13th September 2010 in the UK and Europe, distributed through Universal in the UK and EMI in Europe. Their debut single So Sad (Fade) will precede this on 30th August 2010.
Love Amongst Ruin’s debut came at the infamous ‘Eurosonic’ in the Netherlands followed by two sell out shows at London’s Barfly (12th May 2010) and Scala (9th June 2010). Before the band embark on their European and UK tour in October 2010, they have performed at this years ‘Sonisphere Festival’ on 1st August 2010 to rave reviews.
