Born Ruffians


Oh Canada there is so many things we have to thank you for- hockey, Canadian bacon, and of course the great indie rock band Born Ruffians. This band has been able to create some of the best indie rock music I have ever heard period. From the crazy artwork on many of their albums, the very rangy and somewhat weird singing style of lead singer Luke Lalonde, lyrical focuses in songs, and very southing guitar and bass playing make this band its own breed.

I give the Born Ruffians four and a half stars out five. First reason for this rate is because I haven’t heard a lead singer sing the way Luke does and the lyrics always seem to get me thinking which is always a bonus for me. Second is that they are a band that continues to evolve their sound and not just stick to the same old tunes, including their album Birthmarks that drops this year. Finally, if you’re a fan of creepy and odd music videos, this is defiantly a band to check out and highly suggest you watch I Need A Life. I also suggest you check out their albums Say It and Red, White & Blue.
