Description

Following their breakout debut Dreams (2006), The Whitest Boy Alive returned with Rules, an album that further refined their minimalist indie-pop-meets-dance-rock sound. Recorded in Mexico with no overdubs or effects, Rules captures the organic, groove-driven energy that made the band a cult favourite.

Featuring infectious tracks like "1517," "Keep A Secret," and "Timebomb," the album delivers warm melodies, tight rhythms, and a raw live-band feel that still resonates today. This long-awaited repress ensures fans old and new can experience Rules on vinyl once again.
