The Energy Of PoP PUNK: Rufio Era.
Rufio are a pop punk quartet from Rancho Cucamonga California. They consist of Scott Sellers (guitar, lead vocals) John Berry (Bassist) Clark Domae (Rhythm, guitar, backing vocals) Mike Jimenez (Drums).
Rufio’s fast paced tunes and attitude has earned them acclaim beyond expectation. Formed in 2001, Rufio’s bratty fuelled content highlights the diversity of pop/punk. Never surrendering to mainstream security of public authority, the band’s capitulation through the ranks of their genre has reinstated the brand of fun infused music. Rufio’s first contribution in album terms was catalogue full mellow offerings as well as the up-tempo blasts we all know from the Californian pop/punk administrators. The word catchy was brought back from the dead when Rufio were introduced to the Musical World.
Rufio’s second release was a different route, more sombre, with a darker underskin. But the band still produced the electrifying pop ridden songs that they were acclaimed for. Rufio are a modest band who don’t need to be overplayed, sell-outs to get their point across. The album had the most ludicrous name ‘MCMLXXXV’ a name that came from a wasted mind. Drugs aside, the 12 track album would see Rufio become pop/punk kings.
Rufio’s third album strayed away from uncanny names, but stayed with pop/punk. ‘The Comfort Of Home’ was emotionally intact, an album laced in tension and more serious issues. An occurrence of a sombre style, did not overpower the genre that Rufio were attached to. Lyrically immaculate a more profound in detail, ‘The Comfort Of Home’ was ultimately special, it offered no contrast from their first contribution, it offered a trail of coming back from an sentimental plight.
Rufio’s imminent break-up happened in 2008. Frustration and sadness fluttered across the musical World. Pop/punk was dead. The genre was overflowed with plastic pop oozing out mediocrity. The band members went their separate trails. Lead singer Scott Sellers entered into a solo career with moderate success, but the ghost of Rufio still lingers in the atmospheric vibe of pop/punk.
All Rufio wanted was to befriend the world and executed it with flying colours.
