The Ruins of Beverast

The Ruins of Beverast is a German extreme metal project formed by Alexander von Meilenwald in 2003. Five albums have been released under the moniker through Ván Records.[1] Since 2013, von Meilenwald has also performed live with an expanded line-up under the band's name; however, apart from occasional appearances by session musicians, he continues to perform all instruments and vocals on the band's studio material. Der Spiegel called the third album Foulest Semen of a Sheltered Elite a "highly complex" album and rated it 8 out of 10.[2] The album Exuvia was released in 2017. It was well-received by the metal press. Metal Hammer Germany rated it 6 out of 7, metal.de 9 out of 10.[1][3]
