Reuben were an English three-piece musical group from Camberley, Surrey.

The former style of song often featured vocalist Jamie Lenman switching between shouting and whispering, a technique often used in heavy metal and post-hardcore music.

Their highest charting single was 2004's "Freddy Kreuger", that reached UK No. 53.
