1. The History. September 2004 marks the inception. Over the course of the last five years, Left in Ruins has sought long and hard to find the most brutally talented musicians. Threw Luigi Cilento (Vocals/Guitar), Jorge Naranjo (Lead Guitar), Jaymz Delisle (Guitar), Mike Velasquez (Bass), [now currently Tom-Bass]
and Ben Policello (Drums), into a blender with Iron Maiden, Mastodon, Lamb of God, Slayer, Metallica, Black Sabbath, and Pantera, and you will be left ‘with a ferocious blend of groove-based death metal and thuggish hardcore.’ – Metal Hammer

Left In Ruins have recently shared the studio with producer, Billy Graziadei (Biohazard, Suicide City), to fully execute their debut album, Straight Out Out Hell. Not only does this album ‘…give equal nods to NYDM godfathers Suffocation and the Producer’s usual associates,’ but ‘Each song packs an arsenal of certifiably heavy riffs…’ – Metal Hammer Straight Out Of Hell was released in August of 2008, and was the follow up to their 2006 Self Titled, Self Produced, demo.

Left In Ruins has gone full throttle by taking part in the Sinister Music compilation album series, which was distributed by Mistress Juliya, former host of "Slave to the Metal" on Fuse TV. In addition, they have been featured on "The Underground Thrashold" and "60 Minutes of Mostly Metal" television programs, and have received frequent airplay on 89.5 FM WSOU's "Street Patrol" program.
