DIGITAL ONLY

"Furious & shadowy, propelled by a rousing chorus that evokes early Walkmen." - ​Consequence of Sound

"You can practically see the lightning bolts coming through your speakers." - ​Impose Magazine

"Ruby Bones put the guitars and the grit front and center, but without sacrificing any of (their) clear melodic gifts." - Pop Matters

Following their Billboard-charting debut record, Ruby Bones return with Laser, the first in a trio of EPs out on Mint 400 Records. The indie rockers' latest release combines shout along choruses with existential musings to form fast-paced, punchy songs best enjoyed in the sweat-soaked clubs of New Jersey and Brooklyn. Made up of singer-songwriter Chris Fox, drummer James Janocha, and bassist FC Spies, the band turns Fox's folk songs into thoughtful yet vibrant tracks full of heart and hooks.

“We wanted to write something a bit more lighthearted and fun than the first album," explains Fox. "And as songs came together they started taking on a slightly nostalgic vibe. Lyrically, I realized I was writing about losing one's youth, so the viewpoint became that of somebody going through their 20s and longing for simpler times, even if they’re aware those times are already being romanticized.”

Clocking in at a brisk 10 minutes, the EP is no-frills rock and roll, carrying an unwavering energy start to finish. The first single, "Not Enough," premiered yesterday via ​New Noise Magazine​.
