Age Of Ruin Goes On Hiatus

Washington, DC metal/hardcore band Age Of Ruin will be going on hiatus this month. The group, who has previously released material with Tribunal Records and Eulogy Recordings, has been in the process of recording a new album. Here's a statement from the band:

"Unfortunately for the Lambgoaters, we don't yet have the pretentious and long-winded farewell-letter-to-the-real-fans that seem to have recently become the standard for banal metalcore band break-ups. At the end of this summer, our bass player is moving abroad for graduate study at the American University in Cairo. We are going to take a break for the rest of the year in order to find a suitable replacement as well as wrap up this record we have been working on these past months. The record is scheduled to be released on a to-be-announced label in early-2008, followed by a substantial touring schedule. In the meantime, we are playing a final show on August 18th at the Sterling Community Center in Virginia. Also, any bassists interested in trying out should send an email here."
