Born Ruffians–Luke Lalonde, Mitch Derosier, and Steve Hamelin-rose to prominence in theaughts indie blog era, the sameTorontoscene thatproduced Canadian indie icons like BrokenSocial Scene, Tokyo Police Club,andMetric. Since thattime,they’vebecome one of Canada’sbiggest indie rock exports,releasing8 albums and 3 EPsonsome of the world’s mostacclaimedrecord labels-Warp Records, XL Recordings, Yep Roc Records,Paper Bag Records,andtheirnewly-mintedWavy Haze Records.The group has toured internationally, supporting renowned artists like Caribou, Franz Ferdinand,Hot Chip,andThe New Pornographers, while also headlining tours throughout North America,UK, Europe, and Australia. ‘Uncle, Duke & The Chief’ (2018), one of the final projectsproduced by the late, exceptionally-great producer Richard Swift(The Shins, Nathaniel Rateliff,Foxygen), brought the band into a newera: the album was lauded by NPR Music, Rolling Stone,and American Songwriter as a mature, confident evolution of the band’s hooky left-of-center popsensibilities.Their follow-up COVID-era trilogy ‘JUICE’ (2020), ‘SQUEEZE’ (2020), and‘PULP’ (2021), produced by Graham Walsh (Alvvays, Holy Fuck, METZ),charted on Billboardand US Alternative Radio Chartsandgarnered widespread acclaim from press outlets in NorthAmerica and Europe.In 2025 they return with “Beauty’s Pride”, with new band member Maddy Wilde in tow. Here,the band set out to create a record that sounds like it was made in 2025: it's a maximalist indierock album that embraces hi-fi production techniques.It presents Born Ruffians as the rareveteran act that can still make you feel like you’re discovering your new favourite band

If it weren’t for the fact that both Miri and Mattie were each the tokenized female (and queer) members of their respective bands, Queen of Jeans may have never existed. Their mutual frustration became the glue that bonded them together, and gave them a chance to finally create the kind of music they wanted to make, inspired by both their experiences plus a wide range of artists like St. Vincent, Camera Obscura, and Fiona Apple.
Releasing on Memory Music, Queen of Jeans’ All Again is an enveloping, rich indie-rock record, changing dance partners between cheek-to-cheek ’60s pop sweetness, ’90s alt-rock dirt, spacious and pained emo, and the songcraft and melodicism of the sharpest acoustic singer-songwriter acts. Miriam Devora (vocals, guitar, keys) and Matheson Glass (lead guitar, piano) along with the addition of Andrew Nitz (bass, keys) took extra care this time to create a Queen of Jeans full-length that reflected in sound and structure the emotional depths they were exploring.
The band recorded All Again at producer and engineer Will Yip’s Studio 4. The album’s 11 tracks, which play out a never-ending cycle of love and heartbreak, are loaded with presence and playfulness, giving weight to the memory and emotions that unfurl. As the record closes, it bleeds back into its introduction. Even when something is over, it’s not really over, is it?
