Happy Drone Day is, really, the first official Ruin LP. I say this, although I have released other long play format albums before, because what has been released before have mostly been compilations, or edited into long playing format after the fact.

Happy Drone Day is, not so much a spotlight, but a magnifying glass on the Ruin perspective of the drone genre. Barely any of the tracks on the album are strictly drone; but that doesn't matter. What matters is the idea and aesthetic of drone; where you can stretch ideas and sounds out into massive pipelines of texture. The majority of songs have a strong rhythmic element cast into them, because with my love of drone comes my love of rhythm and percussion. I wanted to fuse the ideas of the 'classical' industrial, which I assume as post-industrial, with ideas of drone and ambient musics. For the most part unintentionally, a strong undercurrent of war and industrialization is present within the tracks, as well as other cultural subjects. It is seen through the eyes nostalgia, while remaining unfamiliar and disorienting.

Happy Drone Day receives transmissions  from other times and weaves them into its grungy, filthy fabric. The drones move in clouds, poisoning the sound, decaying it; and the rhythms move carefully about, narrowly missing the corrosion. All this talk of destruction... it is inherent in Ruin,
