Additional information

What do you know about Ruts DC? What do you want to know about Ruts DC? It’s nearly fifty years since the two sevens clashed. In a little over fifty more years, they will clash again.Back then the Ruts were hot wiring barbed wire guitar, passionate poetry and rhythm weaponry together somewhere in a London that probably does not exist anymore. Splicing heat haze dub thinking to the energy flash of punk, close to the big bang of late twentieth century culture. Open to ideas. Committed to ideals.In 2025 Ruts DC have moved forward- taking these ideals and updating them to embrace the current cultural mindset.Drums and Bass building the defence wall. Guitar and whatever else lobbed in stun/attack mode. That is Ruts DC. That is all you really need to know. “Ruts and Ruts DC songs move with a precise muscularity and carry lyrics of eloquent and graceful rage. No two-chord thrash with shouting over the top.”“Some band’s sound punk. Some look punk. Some even look and sound punk. And some, simply, are punk. The Ruts were early challengers to the misunderstood notion that punk was a somewhat luddite dogma wherein complexity, creative exploration and musical prowess were considered a shameful affectation. “Go back. Listen to everything. From the very beginning of The Ruts in 1977 to now, with the latest Ruts DC album ‘Counterculture?, the much-anticipated follow-up to 2016’s incendiary ‘Music Must Destroy’ album, both released via their own Sosumi Recordings.
