RUFFIANS

Step right up, take your seats and witness living proof that the chilling rumours – of a grotesque septet, a musical freak show too blood-curdling to speak of – are all true. RUFFIANS have rolled their cabaret-core caravan of horror into town! The abomination of emo pop-punk, Queen harmonies, Oom-pah tunes and cheesy Disney trash is real, though surely not of this earth. Be mystified by siren-song melodies, jive to sleazy horn lines, hear your own disembodied voice join the chorus of mesmerising vocal harmonies as relentless punk-rock riffs assault your senses and a filthy breakdown shatters what remains of your will. Newcastle’s very own biological rarities have already corrupted the airwaves of Triple J, performed opening rites in service of international alt-metal gods Papa Roach, and terrified the masses of The Drop festival alongside the likes of The Presets and DZ Death Rays. Now, after unleashing the fresh horrors of their Spooky Kinda Night II EP upon the world, RUFFIANS are here and they’re coming for you!
