His latest release Ruins saw Tompkins rework his debut solo album Castles alongside producer Paul Ortiz (Chimp Spanner) and showcased re-written music with more aggression and a truer, darker tone. Castles was originally created by co-producer and friend Eddie Head (Haji’s Kitchen) and whilst the lyrical and conceptual side still represented the same ideas, the new version Ruins was significantly different to Castles with the addition of Tompkins’ signature aggressive versus clean vocal style.

Ruins features guest artists and additional co-creators. Paul Ortiz (Chimpspanner) rewrote the music and acted as co-producer alongside Tompkins, and Plini plays guitar on opener ‘Wounded Wings’. ‘The Gift’ a new song to accompany the album, features Trivium frontman and guitarist, Matt Heafy.
