Poison Ruïn - Hymns From The Hills (2026) [Hi-Res]

The album Hymns From the Hills marks an evolution for the Philadelphia-based band Poison Ruin, expanding the boundaries of their signature "medieval" punk. The group transitions from social allegories concerning peasantry to darker, more abstract mythic narratives populated by demonic imagery and spectral landscapes. Musically, the record blends their familiar raw low-fidelity sound with new elements, including analog synthesizers, ambient textures, and 1980s post-punk influences. Although the band enlisted professional mixing and mastering engineers such as Jonah Falco and Arthur Rizk, they remained committed to their self-recording ethos. The result is an ambitious work that redefines the potential of modern extreme punk through the lens of timeless mythological symbols.
