See Ya Next Year!

2019 is almost behind us. What a year! We’re taking a break for a spell, but we’ll be back in January with some news, announcements, and (maybe) some resolutions. Until then!

Last stop on tour!

Last stop on tour! Come see us tonight at the Ah house in Sacramento. Stoked to be playing with Ovvn and Ex-Heir.

Fall Tour 2018

Just finalized dates for our 2018 Fall Tour! Very pumped to be playing with old friends XDS and Slow Wow … and new friends Ovvn, Park Street Riot, Tresed, Plastic Caves, Severance Package & Ex-Heir.

End The Backlog Update

Thanks to everyone who came out to Noise​ Records yesterday. We matched the generous donations made by all of you and so together we raised $172 to help end the backlog of hundreds of thousands of untested rape kits across the United States.

Monsters Reviewed by Cassette Gods

Dig this review of Monsters from the always-at-it Cassette Gods: “Scrawling jagged scribbles of tonality on basalt surfaces, Rip Room deface monuments to lesser rock acts, jamming dynamite in the crevices and lighting the fuse.”

Rip Room Release “Monsters” EP, Video for Theoretical

Rip Room is excited to announce that our EP “Monsters” is finally available on cassette. This is the last of the songs we recorded with our dear (and tall) friend Joe Barker, late last year at Louder Studios with the wonderful Tim Green. We also made a video for a song called “Theoretical”. There are spaceship animations and minor strobe effects so be warned.
