Say It

Born Ruffians

Jittery guitars and high-register yelps define this sophomore effort. A restless collection of indie rock that feels both tightly wound and ready to explode.

It's like a caffeinated conversation with a friend who can't stop tapping their foot.

A high-strung, melodic exploration of youthful uncertainty and kinetic energy.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The sudden rhythmic shift in 'Retard Canard' where the guitar and drums lock into a frantic, mathy gallop.
The way 'What to Say' builds from a sparse, dry vocal into a layered, shouting anthem of indecision.
The closing moments of 'At Home Now' where the frantic energy finally settles into a weary, melodic resolution.
