De band My Ruin uit Los Angeles heeft de toevoeging van Jason Brunk als nieuwe drummer aangekondigd. In februari 2005 besloot eerdere drummer Yael Benzaken plotseling te vertrekken.

Na Yael's vertrek was het gitarist en belangrijkste componist Mick Murphy die alle drumpartijen inspeelde voor het nieuwe album "The Brutal Language".

Nieuwe drummer Jason Brunk voegde zich pas bij de groep nadat de opnamesessie was afgerond. Samen met Brunk kwam ook bassist Chris Lisee bij de band. Lisee vervangt bassist Johnny Chow. Frontvrouw Tarrie B. verklaarde:
"Mick has always been the main songwriter and driving musical director in the band. Although we never expected we would have to record our album with just the two of us after our former members [drummer Yael and bassist Johnny Chow] decided to leave the band abruptly in February, we knew we could do it, and we did. Mick produced the album and played all the guitar, bass and drum parts. There was no way we were about to let what happened end our band. After completing the recording, finding the right people to be a part of My Ruin was something we did very low-key and privately."

Murphy voegde daar het volgende aan toe over de zoektocht naar nieuwe bandleden:

"We were both a little gun-shy and not in a rush to just fill the rhythm section. [New bass player] Chris suggested we audition his friend and former bandmate, Jason Brunk, who we also happened to know from our past and were really excited about. Jason has a hard-hitting, thunderous style of drumming which gives the music a huge live sound."

My Ruin brengte "The Brutal Language" uit op 27 september via het eigen label Rovena Recordings.
