Artist:	BORN RUFFIANS
Title:	Red Yellow & Blue
Label:	WARP RECORDS (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$15.50
Catalog #:	WARP 164CD

"Produced by Rusty Santos, the New York mixer behind Animal Collective and Panda Bear's albums, this record exemplifies the Ruffians' brand of self-described 'hootin and hollarin.' From start to finish it's a good time, and the band knows it. With songs like the jangly 'Hedonistic Me' and the sugary sweet 'Foxes Mate for Life' to the foot stomping 'Badonkadonkey,' the band constantly pushes the boundaries of musical arrangements. Live, they have the chops of a seasoned performer, but none of the jade, performing each set like it's their last."

Title:	Say It
Label:	WARP RECORDS (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$15.50
Catalog #:	WARP 194CD

"If Born Ruffians' 2008 debut album Red, Yellow and Blue was the result of a talented and precocious gang of freshmen, their 2010 follow-up, Say It, would be the project they left school to finish -- a declaration that they're smart and ambitious enough to make it on their own, and furthermore, that they're in it for the long haul. Taking two weeks to record the album, the band finds itself teaming up again with producer Rusty Santos. The Ruffians and co. holed up at Mississauga's Metalworks studio and loosened the reins on their ambitions, experimenting with Minimoogs and saxophones before eventually scaling much of it back in the mixing process. The result is a very mature album, further amplifying the band's unique voice and sound, ready to take them as far as they want to go."
