Rah Brahs are at it again! You know, Rah Bras! Yeah! Rah Bras! Those Rah Bras we're always talking about all the time! Alright, let's be real. You've never heard jack shit about the fuckin' Rah Bras, so listen up. 'Cause if they get all fat and successful, and all your friends are all, "Dude! Fuckin' Rah Bras, man!" you're gonna wish you be like, "Yeah! Fuckin' Rah Bras, dude!" instead of standing there like an insolent dumbass. So let's get on this shit.

The noisy trio (Isabellarah Rubella, Boo Rah and Jean Rah) is set to release a new CD in late October on Lovitt Records. According to the Lovitt website, the new album will be called Ruy Blas! and will feature their trademark "melodic assault and spectacular beats." Plus lots of little symbols in their bandname that can't be replicated with your standard American keyboard. The new record is reported to be a step forward for the Brahs that will combine pop sensibilities with electronic abrasiveness into a tasty breakfast cereal of whup-ass and Prozac. This will be the band's third release, and their first full-length, after an EP on Vermiform and an EP on Lovitt.
