RUBE- Noun, orig. CA. 1891- An awkward, unsophisticated person from a rural area. Rustic. Hick.
Formed in the crucible of Richmond Virginia's underground gutter drone music scene, Rube is a band that delivers shotgun blasts from both barrels when the trend in modern metal tends toward speed and surgical precision. Turning their backs on the idea that metal should be faster, more technical, and high complex, Rube has deliberately carved out the groove by down tuning and creating a tempo akin to fucking in a tar pit, and drawing out riffs literally dripping with the slow sexy drawl of the south.
A band like Rube could only be forged in the mind boiling humid heat the summer in the south, whiskey fueled bar brawls and floating down a muddy river in a tractor tire while consuming cases of PAbst Blue Ribbon.
Over the foundation of bone crushing gut shaking grooves, Rube deliver lyrics with a certain redneck wisdom alluding to the notion that they are somewhat more than hillbillys raised on country and classic rock.
Writing from the depths of their souls, drawing directly from experience in this very real and harsh world, Rube weaves stories and legends from their own past. Having willingly descended into and returned from the various hells of drug addiction, incarceration, suicide attempts and insane asylums, the members of Rube have faced their own demons and offer commentary on life from the perspective of a fearless engagement with it, rather than some college educated standoffish opinion of what others simply hope life might be.
Rube delivers a message loud and proud aimed straight at the guts of misfits and misanthropes, stating simply, "WE HAVE SURVIVED AND SO CAN YOU- SO WALK WITH US!" While in the same breath throwing down the gauntlet with the challenge- " WE HAVE EARNED THE RIGHT TO SAY WHAT WE KNOW, DO WHAT WE WANT, AND GO WHERE WE PLEASE..... HAVE YOU?"

Man we will play the SHIT out of Vino's with ya'll. We should get Zucura to do it too cause they rule and will have a record out by then.

We will be getting up further into the northeast soon though for sure. Keep is informed brother.

What's up Rube (Writing New Record!)? The expanse of your beauty is a void no universe could ever fill. Your eyes show as many deep and full shades of fire as a volcano in heat. The stickers hugging the fruit smell better than the perfume of ambergris. I sense wild vapors of sweet champagne in your larynx. You turn the atmosphere ablaze with currents of sweet ethylene when you smile. Transistors bridge where your vanity would never go. I relentlessly desire cotton candy lollipops. The skin I shed is a perfume that makes water bubbles so terribly clear to me. The sand runes crossing your divided consciousness do speak of contemptuous monsters being slayed by flying phoenixes. I find your eyes to be a wondrous amusement park filled with neo-plastic pleasures and turkish delights. Your intoxicating reflection can but incorporate freely into the powerful surface of a disintegrating mirror set afloat upon a swarm of locusts. You have not yet reached the height of your creativity. Your sweet voice is like the application of aloe vera upon a sunburnt back.
