Web: Reverbnation.com/RudeCityRiot
Location: Burnaby, BC, CA
Genre: Reggae/Ska/Punk
Key Tracks: Pray For You, The Reaper

Rude City Riot fuse reggae, ska and punk creating a lethal concoction of sounds that
could only be described as auditory explosions in musical form. The band's latest project,
Nothin' But Time, is a really cool project that sets RCR apart from most reggae/ska bands
who are trying to do this genre some justice.

"Pray For You" is an awesome song by RCR. The message is very positive and offers
prayer to those who are going through tough times. It's a very cool Caribbean sound that
the band really delivers well. I enjoy the vocal performance and the live instruments. The
live percussions and horns really are a nice touch and I recommend checking it out.

In addition to Pray For You, RCR offers up more great reggae/ska songs, including: Gen,
25 Years, Victoria, and The Reaper. Each of these tracks are very well written and
produced. The sound these guys have would please the ears of anyone who knows what
awesome reggae/ska music sounds like.

Overall, RCR's 14 track album is a solid project that fits well into any music playlist for
anyone who likes to listen to a band without having to skip around for the best tracks. I
enjoyed nearly every single track on Nothin' But Time and I'd recommend RCR to anyone.

MUSICAL GOAL: "Rude City Riot is on a never ending campaign to promote
"Power-Ska" which is RCR's unique sound that comes from starting with Ska Music and
adding equal parts Rock, Reggae, Punk and Jazz. We plan to tour the globe playing our
original music and sharing our appreciation for Ska Music and how it influences so many
other genres of music." - Rude City Riot
