RUSTMINE is a five piece, American, melodic-metal band with band members both from Portland, OR and Vancouver, WA.

RUSTMINE came together as a full band in August 2006. After almost three months of rehearsing and writing, RUSTMINE played their first show, co-headlining at the Aladdin Theater in Portland, OR in July of 2006. The first live show was a success.

Career Highlights

Six months after RUSTMINE's first show, RUSTMINE was filmed for a television show called Milwaukie's Best Music. (Oregon State) A week later RUSTMINE was chosen as Crave Magazine's Northwest Featured Artist for Crave's January 2007 issue. During this period RUSTMINE recorded their first, self-titled, four song demo.

With the success of headlining the next four shows, and the reviews of the demo, RUSTMINE then decided to start recording their debut, studio album in May of 2007. The album "Self Destruct" was released on Tuesday February 26th, 2008.

Currently the tracks "Self Destruct", "Waste" and "Vicious Cycle" for their debut album titled "Self Destruct" are being played on various Clear Channel and CBS Radio stations through out the United States.

From the opening of "Self Destruct" to the closing with "Alone" you have a sense of hard work and great care into releasing a debut album that is sure to please even the most demanding fan. An album that has as much or more to offer then many of the better financed bands in the industry. Gunnar Jacobson of Northern Lights Recording Studio in Vancouver, WA, did a fine job of producing Self Destruct. Get your copy of Self Destruct today! I give this CD 4.8 of 5 stars!
