Refuge and Ruin is an alternative/modern rock band in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.  We write musically and lyrically relevant songs dealing with the dualities of life: justice and mercy, love and hate, pain and joy, light and darkness.  We play primarily our own songs with a few covers, and we hope you find our music original and appealing.  Our debut album, Break Free, will be released in the near future.  We believe we carry a responsibility to address real, earth-shattering issues that face modern audiences, and we're determined to make our message known.  To hear our music for yourself, visit our myspace at www.myspace.com/refugeandruin.  For more information, send us an email at refugeandruin@gmail.com.  Thanks for your interest!
