Rufio

Perhaps, I Suppose (2001)

Ryan

Rufio! Rufio! Ru-fi-oooooooo! When you hear this you will most likely think of the movie "Hook." Well thats not the case here, as you may have heard this band is the shit, plain and simple. They pull this record off nicely, sounding a lot like "New Found Glory." In fact I thought they were NFG when I first listened to this band. To sum it up, Rufio hands NFGs ass to them.

In my opinion the weak point of this album lies in the first song. The first song which is called "Above Me," is a very fast paced song that should honestly be dismissed off this album, because this song sounds nothing like the rest of the cd. The second song, "Still," is easily one of the catchiest songs on the album. The chores will be stuck in your head for a long time:

"Although I can see, time is not running out,
I still run behind everything.
I don't understand, I embrace every thought,
everyword…everything."

Song 3 on this release is my personal favorite which is called, "One Slowdance." It starts of with a melody that is so mezmorizing, and will make you hum along with it. Pretty much songs 4-13 are really good. Then it comes to song 14 which is, "Save The World," and this song is also fast paced, similar to "Above Me." The only difference is this song is much better (lyrics, music). Then finally the last song is an instrumental piece, which has some bad ass guitar solos. Wow!

Finally it seems like there is no more creative bands out there anymore, and believe me this band is very creative when it comes to song writing, and the fact they can rock the house. If you don't own this cd, then the best thing to do would be to buy it now, and add one of the best cds of 2001 to your collection.
