Sentient Ruin Laboratories

Sentient Ruin Laboratories is an American vinyl/tape label based in Oakland, California. With a focus on Black/Death/Doom Metal, Dark/Ritual Ambient, Industrial, Noise, as well as Crust Punk, Powerviolence/Grind and other forms of fringe extreme music.

Founded with the aim to unearth and propagate the most abrasive and challenging sonic creations from around the globe. Sentient Ruin tirelessly seeks out uncompromising artists who push boundaries and defy conventions within their respective genres.

The label's diverse roster includes *artists* who create intense soundscapes that delve into darkness and explore the depths of human emotion. From bone-crushing metal to haunting ambient compositions, each release on Sentient Ruin Laboratories promises a unique and captivating listening experience.

The atrocious occult hymns of Vile Ritual churn with incantations of eons past to realize a most disfigured vision of deviated and perverse blackened death metal ritualism. Born of the most sinister and arcane carnal rites, Tongues of the Exsanguinate sees the sounds of ghostly utterances travel over cavernous ambiance to create a disembodied, trance-like state, while inhumanly crushing riffs bludgeon the listener and entomb them in a suffocating and gruesome aural burial.

Both horrific yet timelessly evocative, Vile Ritual's ancient and blood-drenched blackened death metal melds the feral atrocity of 90's bestial black metal acts like Von and Beherit with hallucinatory atmospheres and the crushing low end of old school death metal butchers like Infester, Rippikoulu, and Imprecation to create a brutal yet hypnotic hallucination of total arcane death metal savagery and abandon. 

Conjuring similar otherworldly death metal deformities as we've seen in deviant bands like Antediluvian, Necros Chrstos, Sect Pig and Chaos Echoes, Tongues of the Exanimate is the most recent manifestation in this obscure entity's foul but masterful reveling in total surrealistic ritual death metal butchery, a 12" vinyl and cassette tape compilation LP envisioned by the band and Sentient Ruin unison that combines three brand new and previously unreleased tracks along with a completely remixed and remastered revision of Vile Ritual's masterful 2019 self-tiled debut demo/EP.
