Happy Saturday! I’m not saying that I advocate overindulging on libations, but I do think The Ruiins latest single “Wasted” might be the perfect soundtrack for many of you.
This is one of those tracks that you hear, then you want to play again. It’s incredibly catchy, driven by passionate vocals, driving drums, and searing guitar riffs.
“We wanted to release a song that people can relate to, even though it’s not about what most people would think when they first hear it,” explained guitarist Pat Sugden. “Take it either way but it’s actually just a metaphor for wasting time” added drummer and singer Adam Dooker. “The mind frame you face as a result of this, and really wanting to change but it seeming too hard or out of your control”.
Something tells me this song would go off in a sweaty pub somewhere. Thankfully The Ruiins are in the middle of a national tour, where they’re roadtesting material from their second EP, scheduled to drop in a couple of months. Here are the venues still left to go!
11 April 2019 – The Bearded Lady, Brisbane
13 April 2019 – The Northern Hotel, Byron Bay
28 April 2019 – The Gum Ball Festival, Belford
