(They also liked my Tweet. Aww.)
Never heard of them before, but according to Wikipedia:
The Ruse is a four-piece indie rock band based in Los Angeles, California. The band was started in 2004 in New York City, but relocated in 2005 to California. The band is known for grand, epic sounding songs and a captivating live show.[2]
The band started playing coast-to-coast tours in 2005, and has since performed hundreds of shows throughout the United States. The band has released four full-length studio albums, and one EP.[3]
In June 2009, iTunes selected The Ruse song "Beautiful Is Gone" to be the iTunes Single of the Week.[4] The group's album Midnight in the City reached No. 21 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart as a result.[5]
In 2012, the band travelled to France to promote their Rebellion EP.
In October 2013, Muse took The Ruse to Mexico as their support band for six shows.[6] In September 2015, The Ruse were the opening band for Muse concerts in Bangkok, Singapore, Hong Kong and South Korea.[7]

... So they definitely have a history with Muse and Mexico. Cool.
Listening to some Youtube clips, I already like them better than Walk The Moon. They seem to be an actual indie rock band. Haven't really been active since 2016 though, hmm. Wonder if they have a new album coming out soon then?
Edit: Oh, the video below was actually filmed when they opened up for Muse on October 22, 2013 at the Palacio De Los Deportes, which is right next door to Foro Sol!
I hope I'll be able to survive that crowd, omg. o_o
(Goal: Be the sole white girl in the front row. lol YESS I CAN DO IT)
