Compulsion To Kill’s Ruined Society is a ferocious grindcore album that delivers 18 tracks in just under 22 minutes, epitomizing the genre's raw intensity. The recording comprised a lineup of Deck (drums), Jasz (Guitar) and Tengkorak (vocals). Recorded in 2010 but released in 2013 through Grindfather Productions and Revulsion Records, the album's delayed release did not diminish its impact. The digipack presentation, featuring black-and-white photography and a silver-stamped logo, adds a visually striking element to the physical release.
Musically, Ruined Society offers relentless, straightforward, politically charged grindcore that channels primal aggression. The tracks are concise, intense, and aggressive — designed to evoke intense emotions and energy. The album's raw production captures a live, rehearsal-room feel, immersing listeners in its unfiltered sound.
Lyrically, the album addresses themes of societal decay and political unrest, with track titles like “Zionism Is the New Nazi,” “Religious Exploitation,” and “Borderless Violence.” These themes reflect the band's critical perspective on global and local issues.
