The End Records have set a release date of June 24th, 2008 for the North American release of The Ruiner from Brooklyn-based band MADE OUT OF BABIES. The band’s third album is their most inspired and complex offering to date. While The Ruiner retains the group’s trademark ferocious hybrid of PJ HARVEY, JESUS LIZARD, YEAH YEAH YEAHS and BIG BLACK, it also finds the band’s musical exploration showcasing something unsettling and unique. Using photos from exhibits on the evolution of mankind at The Museum of Natural History in New York City, the album artwork was designed by critically-acclaimed artist Seldon Hunt.
