Ruby Isle is a band created when Mark Mallman joined with his high school friend Dan Geller (co-founder of Kindercore Records) and drummer Aaron LeMay. They released an EP, Into the Black in 2007 and released their first full-length album Night Shot in 2008.

elbo.ws covers

[edit]

In late 2007, Ruby Isle started a project[1] in which they covered the No. 1 song on indie music blog aggregator elbo.ws. The first pressing of their album Night Shot included all the covers from the first wave of this project:

  1. "Shadow Falls" (Hello Blue Roses)
  2. "Aly Walk with Me" (The Raveonettes)
  3. "Tyrant" (Black Mountain)
  4. "Foam Hands" (Destroyer)
  5. "Gila" (Beach House)
  6. "The Planes of Baltimore" (Stephen Malkmus/MIA)
  • Ruby Isle missed a week, so they took two weeks' number ones ("Baltimore" by Stephen Malkmus and "Paper Planes" by MIA) and created one "mash-up" cover
  1. "Sax Rohmer No. 1" (The Mountain Goats)
  2. "Cherry Tulips" (Headlights)

  2. "Skinny Love" (Bon Iver)
  3. "The Rake's Song" (The Decemberists)
  4. "My Girls (Animal Collective)
  5. "Short Fuse" (Black Lips)
  6. "Now We Can See" (The Thermals)
