Born Ruffians - Red, Yellow and Blue
The next big thing out of Toronto might be this trio of high-school indie rockers: singer-guitarist Luke LaLonde, bassist Mitch DeRosier and drummer Steve Hamelein. Blessed with idiosyncratic song structures, oddball time signatures and unusual subject matter, the Ruffians’ debut album is an aural treat, from the power-pop, sugar rush of “Hummingbird” to the work song “Hedonistic Me,” about a field-hollering, wildly procreating farmer. Best of all is “Broonkadonkey,” as infectious as it is nonsensical.
