Future Ruin

October 30, 2010: Future Ruin begins setting up the stage for their chance to win the Lima Battle of the Bands event at the Ohio Theatre. Anticipation and excitement is in the air. The crowd is screaming before the band even plays a note. “Future Ruin was the last band to play Saturday night, and they almost seemed as though they where the headlining act.” - KevUn (Lima Entertainer) There were 18 of the finest bands in the area, but Future Ruin claimed victory that night. “In my mind, there was no question who was the winner after their set.” This was only one show of many where Future Ruin wowed an audience. They have shared stages with bands such as Tantric, Evans Blue, Egypt Central, Taproot, and Pop Evil, just to name a few. Every time they finish a set, they leave the crowd in a wild frenzy. (Warning: Future Ruin is not responsible for any injuries.) “While Tantric put on a great show, Future Ruin was the best band of the night.” - Devin Shobe (Lima Entertainer) Future Ruin’s music can be described as Hard Rock/Metal with a mainstream appeal, comparable to bands like Breaking Benjamin, Metallica, and Five Finger Death Punch. Some drunk dude said, “They are a bastard child of Joan Jett and Sully of Godsmack.” Lead vocalist Jason Gilbert fronts the band with his extreme vocals and high energy. Cory May is their own guitar virtuoso; his lead guitar style has been compared to greats like Randy Rhoads, Eddy Van Halen, and Kirk Hammett, all while retaining his own flavor. Add their newest addition, Austin Fassett, shredding on rhythm guitar, combined Tony Rocca pounding out technical rhythms, and Roger Matlock’s rock-solid bass lines, and you have a band that will make you crank it till your ears bleed then say, sir may I have another! After 8 years (2004-2012) Future Ruin is done. Thank you everyone who supported us over the years. Keep an eye out for all of the guys in other projects.
