The New Regime - We Rise, We Fall


Multi-instrumentalist Ilan Rubin is best known for his work with NINE INCH NAILS, LOSTPROPHETS, ANGELS & AIRWAVES and a brief stint with PARAMORE. But it can be argued that his best work happens when this one-man-band is fronting—and backing THE NEW REGIME.

THE NEW REGIME is out touring as support for THE USED and did a show yesterday at Klubben here in Stockholm. An interesting combo of many genres rock in a pretty nice package. Together on tour he has his Brother Danny Rubin on bass and drummer Hayden Scott (AWOLNATION, FILTER)



Today's tune "We Rise, We Fall" is taken from album "Exhibit B", which Rubin wrote and recorded almost entirely while touring with NIN in 2013-14. Given what his night job was at the time, you might expect the results of his daylighting to sound Trent-influenced. Perhaps you’ll find some of that in there, but you may be more immediately struck by the old-school classicism of Rubin’s approach.

Awolnation - Sail


"Sail" is a song by American electronic rock band Awolnation. It was written and produced in Venice, California by group member Aaron Bruno, with Kenny Carkeet performing the audio engineering. The song was first featured on the band's debut extended play Back from Earth (2010) and was later featured on their debut album Megalithic Symphony (2011).

Released as a single on January 4, 2011, "Sail" is the band's most commercially successful song to date.

The video for "Sail" opens with lead singer Aaron Bruno running to a house. He enters the house relieved to have escaped from the threat outside. He shuts the blinds. Bruno then finds a tape recorder, and starts singing into it. He enters a bathroom and looks into a mirror, still singing. A green strip of light enters the house and moves across it, scanning a spacesuit helmet and a military flight-suit. As the light climbs up the stairs towards him, Bruno hides inside a full bathtub. The beam scans him in the bath. Bruno is then depicted being pulled across the floor by an unknown force; he attempts to cling to a door-frame, but loses his grip. The scene is interspersed with shots of Bruno closing a door and playing the song's piano section. As the song's final chorus section begins, the house shakes. Lights and lamps turn on and off as gusts of wind blow. Bruno is pulled by the mysterious force outside the house, and he is subsequently levitated up into the sky as a set of floodlights flash on him. He drops the tape recorder.

A video recorded by Youtuber Nanalew two years prior to Awolnation's own video has nearly 150 million views, in comparison to the groups own video which has just about 2 million.


Awolnation (usually stylized as AWOLNATION) is an American electronic rock band, formed and fronted by Aaron Bruno, formerly of Under the Influence of Giants, Hometown Hero and Insurgence. The band is signed to Red Bull Records, and their first EP, Back from Earth, was released on iTunes on May 18, 2010
