4 out of 5 stars Great Record!.......2006-06-16

First, I would like to address something that Deathbox13 wrote a few reviews down. The reviewer is calling My Ruin an Otep rip off.

That reviewer does not know their history! Tairrie B started off as a rapper and was later in a rap metal band called Manhole. She rapped, screamed, and did spoken word in Manhole. Manhole's first release All Is Not Well was released in 1996. Otep's first EP Jihad was released in 2001. Who is ripping off who? Please do your research...

This is My Ruin's finest hour. Tairrie sounds AMAZING on this record.

5 out of 5 stars Beauty Fiend.......2004-11-17

Well, I find myself to be in love in all of My Ruin's albums, and this one is no different. The band has a great sound, I'd highly recomend this CD for anyone who you know who enjoys their style.

2 out of 5 stars Ok.......2004-10-29

This is an ok band. Nothing special simialiar to Otep, but Otep is MUCH better and its the best band ever. Well at least its better than Kittie which suks. Less than half the songs are good. They have some spoken word tracks and rapping like otep, can u say ripoff! So overall only about 4 or 5 ok songs.

1 out of 5 stars Appallingly bad.......2004-08-13

*Yawn* Yet another dismal album by a band whose members try so desperately to look gothic and scary in the booklet. This album really is predictable. You've heard it all before in the form of Slipknot, but there was at least a trace of melody with them, unlike My Ruin. I really don't see how anyone could class this album as good music when there's clearly nothing to hear other than a disorganized mess of screams. Tairrie B or whatever her name is cannot sing. Ok she can moan and groan and squeal but its all done with the aid of various vocal machines. The songs are quite frankly appalling. "Beauty Fiend" wouldn't have been so bad had it been a one off but no, every other song sounds the same. There are also two cover songs which are embarrasingly bad compared with their originals. The song "Miss Anne-Thorpe" could have been good if only Jessicka (from JOJ) had sung it all by herself. Just like Kittie, My Ruin are another band who continue to go from bad to worse but it's to be expected when there's not an ounce of talent involved.

5 out of 5 stars Quality Music.......2004-06-27

By reading other people's reviews about this album which I've listened to. Tairrie B goes further into her thoughs a feelings not only on feminism, which I feel is a positive aspect (which have stated on my review of the prevouis album) but deep personal feelings about people shes known in genaral pure brilliance. There is a real intelligence in every single track and the two most prominent for me are "Miss Ann Thrope" with Jessicka of "Jack Off Jill" and "Scarling" and truly real, kinetic song which hence the name states her views on humanity.The other track is "My War" which is powerful in its message to person who has gone behind her back. A feeling we all can relate to.
