A Cruel And Brutal Fellow


One of the nice things about having a blog is that you have to make some research on your subject, and sometimes, you learn very interesting related facts, such as the meaning of the word 'ruffian', of which I was totally ignorant a few minutes ago. The band I was researching is called Born Ruffians and my research didn't go much further than the name. I only know that they are a band from Ontario and that last year, they released a very good debut album called 'Red Yellow and Blue'. They make catchy songs, and even though they stay faithful to the basic instruments of rock'n'roll, they are very good to experiment with the way they use them. They play tonight with Akron/Family at Il Motore. I think Akron/Family is headlining, but in my opinion Born Ruffians are better. Here's one of my favorite songs from 'Red Yellow and Blue'.
