Vocalist / bassist Tom Gervais comments:
This is our song dedicated to our hometown, Toronto. The stories are true never mind all the alt rock shoegaze hipster shit. We come from Hogtown. We are The Rough Boys.
There are no Rock and Roll prerequisites for one to enjoy The Rough Boys, taking their name from a Neil Young lyric All those rough boys, playin that rock and roll. The bands third EP Blood, Booze And Gasoline offers bluesy stoner rock songs in a punk metal setting, thus putting them somewhere in a grey area of the heavy music world, but if its an alternative to most of todays metal genres youre looking for, you got it!
This EP is packed with aggression and emotion sure to leave you in both shock and awe while forcing you to press Play again and again. Release date is July 22, 2014.
The band has shared the stage with Cauldron, Fuck The Facts, Axxion, Midnight Malice, Adrenechrome, Saigon Hookers to name a few.

A collision of soul-scorching hard rock with speed-fueled thrash metal. This is music thats loud, dirty, raw, and played at a breakneck pace. Just think Motorhead crashing head-on with Slayer.- Exclaim Magazine
