Ruby Isle

My Minneapolis comrade Mark Mallman got a shout-out on Stereogum today for his new band, Ruby Isle, doing a electro-pop cover of "Teenage Riot". (If you Google "Ruby Isle" right now, the top result is still the Wisconsin mall that is the band's namesake. That's how fresh this band is!)

Oh, and one more thing: listen to <a href="http://www.myspace.com/rubyisle" target="_blank">those songs on MySpace</a> and tell me this band shouldn't be huge.

Wanna see them live without leaving your coach, in a crappy YouTube sort of way? I took <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3t1EMKdQug">a couple videos</a> at their <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5gbaVk3HrQ">400 Bar show</a> a couple weeks ago.
