“EXSUCITO” is the brazen, propulsive debut from Seattle’s RUESTER. Comprised of rock heroes Robby Wood, Joe Steenburgh and Ric Vaughan, RUESTER’s blistering brawn is captured with animalistic grace by Woodshed Studios.

As Robby Wood’s guttural growl plays off Ric Vaughan’s junkyard dog guitar savagery, both ride Joe Steenburgh’s thunderous beats, stomping through verses and murdering choruses with violent glee. Cut with an anthemic sense of melody, RUESTER’s brutal edge nods to the glorified gristle of Seattle’s grunge yesteryear while maintaining a decidedly post-grunge punk attitude. The Album marries RUESTER’s reckless spirit with dynamic, 3-D production, bringing out each song’s natural momentum with Technicolor immediacy.

Joe Steenburgh: drummer,
Steenburgh tours The Czech Republic with The Main Event as drummer extraordinaire, returns home to Seattle to continue producing the city’s hottest rap beats and engineering recording sessions for rock’s bourgeoning burners. MPC to mixing board, turnpike to tarmac, Young Joe’s inside-out music knowledge and touring chops inform beat upon back-breaking beat. A road-tested amalgamation of Jon Bonham and Jam Master Jay, he smokes competition to a mountain of ash and blows it away with mash-the-gas force. Holding down RUESTER’s percussion, Joe Steenburhgh will smash your face on the hard rock.

Robby Wood: vocalist,
Wood jets from vocal lesson to studio, opens his mouth, and vomits adrenaline like an altered beast. If you could have a ménage-a-trois in a hot tub filled with Red Bull and Zipfizz, you might have an idea of Robby Wood’s heart-pounding intensity. RUESTER owes its soul to this rock warrior, the only man alive who can live Motley Crue’s entire history in one night, not overdose, not have a baby, and start the next morning by asking, “Where the party at?” Rugged and raw do not come close to adequate.

Ric Vaughan: guitarist,
Amongst the post-80’s wreckage of so many glorified gunslingers, Ric Vaughan pops ‘nuff nuclear champagne corks to scare today’s shoegazers into yesterday’s Cold War bunkers. As in-the-pocket crunch gives way to the fearlessly frenetic, Vaughan coils and snaps like a cobra bear-trap. His work with SUBPOP grunge band BIBLE STUD (check your moldy Backlash magazines) and SONY 550’s post-grunge CRAWL speak to his gap-bridging conjure: punk, grunge and metal in a single strum. Blistering, cacophonous, obnoxious, savage…every adjective is cliché. Let it be said that when Ric Vaughan detonates a Marshall stack, the best bet is to tie your tubes and hide your kids.

Then there is the Jew....
Jew brings the spring loaded stage presents back to the rhythm guitar. Giving Ruester the brain throbbing hold downs needed for Vaughan and Wood to go where no men have gone before.

Bringing up the bass is long time ally of Vaughans, Robert Stewart.
Just hangin back, keepin it low and bringin it loud, Stewarts vast experience lets it all flow and happen with no worries.
