Born Ruffians &bull; <i>JUICE</i>

Born Ruffians • JUICE

Nailing the indie guitar sound is one thing, but Born Ruffians have become so adept at it that it’s more like lathering it in epoxy, then bolting it down, and adding some rivets for good measure.

The Growlers &bull; <i>Natural Affair</i>

The Growlers • Natural Affair

You might expect rowdy blues, or thrash-worthy hardcore from the name, but this is some very creative indie rock, using your standard ingredients yet somehow wringing out a distinctive texture and taste.

The Rubens &bull; <i>Lo La Ru</i>

The Rubens • Lo La Ru

Fantastic Aussie rock-pop with a lot of variety, each song having its own strange melodic structure and personality.
