“It’s like sex with horns,” describes a recent Denver, CO listener on www.myspace.com/fabrudies. The Fabulous Rudies are often referred as a cross between No Doubt and Sublime while blending together a sensational mix of rock, reggae, pop and ska, The Fabulous Rudies will knock you off your feet and then make ‘em move. It’s real music with teeth. Their sound will HIT you with fist pumping, heart pounding rock; at the same time, get you on the dance floor with a groove that will keep you movin’ all night long.

The Rudiments were considered the dark side of ska. They mixed heavy punk with a bit of ska. Signed to Dill Records (home of Skankin' Pickle) but broke up in '97. They came from the East Bay Ska/Punk scene and drew heavily from other bands utilizing the fusion of the two sounds like Operation Ivy and The Clash. Originally known as Los Rudiments, the band released 2 full albums and a split with the Suicide Machines, and had a compilation album re-released through Asian Man records. .
