Ilan Rubin’s The New Regime has announced upcoming tour dates with Failure, who recently reunited in early 2014 after a 17-year hiatus.
Multi-instrumentalist/vocalist and songwriter, Ilan Rubin is best known for his drumming with Nine Inch Nails, Angels & Airwaves and Paramore, but it can be argued that his best work happens when this one-man-band is fronting-and backing – The New Regime.
Attendees of the upcoming tour will get a unique live music experience – with Rubin on guitar/vocals fronting a 3-piece band. The addition of a full band allows for a raw, dynamic representation of his music, packed with improvisations and embellishments expanding beyond the recorded material. Rubin’s commanding stage presence will shock those used to seeing him behind a drum-set.
TNR released Exhibit B on March 31, 2015, which is available for purchase via iTunes. Catch him on tour with Failure fromAugust 18th– 31st. Exhibit B is the name of the New Regime’s new eight-song EP, which Rubin wrote and recorded almost entirely while touring with NIN in 2013-14. And it was on that tour that Rubin got to stretch his wings onstage as well.
