Biography

Ruins is a jazz group, formed in 1985. Members include Tatsuya Yoshida. Record labels: Tzadik Records. The discography here lists 16 albums, from “Stonehenge” (1990) to “Tzomborgha” (2002).

Ruins is a Japanese music duo composed only of drummer/vocalist Tatsuya Yoshida and a bass guitarist (there have been four such bassists in the band's history). The group, formed in 1985, was supposedly intended to be a power trio; the guitarist, however, never showed up to the band's first rehearsal so the group remained a duo. The music touches on progressive rock, jazz fusion and noise rock.
