The Runs
 Location: San Jose, CA



:::METROactive::: "The Runs are straight punk as it's meant to be played: in a bar, drunk, fast, witty and loud as hell."

:::ROCK'N'ROLL PURGATORY:::"...the bland rag of banality."

:::IN MUSIC WE TRUST::: "...the punk-inspired party-rock record you want to just blast."

:::SPACE CITY ROCK::: "...there's really something in this album for everyone who has ever liked any punk over the years."

:::HUSSIESKUNK::: "There's The Queers. Then there was Screeching Weasel. Now we have The Runs."

:::F.U.T. Magazine:::"...a familiar Ramonesesque sound with a blast of originality"

:::AMP online:::"...certainly worth listening to"

:::SCORE! MUSIC MAGAZINE:::"If you are looking for 14 short, sharp shots of old-school punk, give the debut album by The Runs a shot."

:::NWxSW Connections::: "Catch 'em if ya can!"

:::POCKETFUL OF CHANGE::: "sloppy three chord punk akin to the era when Wimpy still fronted the Queers"

:::CULTURE BUNKER::: "good, old-fashioned barre chord punk rock" "full-on downstroke Johnny Ramone guitar"

:::NEO-ZINE::: "These guys are just full on entertaining."

:::SKA, PUNK AND OTHER JUNK::: "Impressive debut album..."

:::MAXIMUM ROCKNROLL::: "a crisp, clean and concise listening experience"

:::RAZORCAKE::: "Accept no substitutes!" "...pretty fast, pretty poorly recorded Ramonesy punk band"

:::ROCKINDAYS.it::: "from a trio brought up on bread, water and Ramones"

:::HYBRID MAGAZINE.com::: "Primitive garage punk... reminiscent of very early Bad Brains..."

:::TERMINAL-BOREDOM::: "Well written and well played... and the songs themselves are a bit smarter (and funnier) than the title concept will lead you to believe."

:::NEUFUTUR::: "...the tracks are crafted with the perfect blend of catchiness and maturity... eminently singable... a challenge to not absolutely love."

:::BUZZGRINDER.com::: "This is raw stuff... this is the way it should be."

:::AGOUTI MUSIC.com::: "Musically, The Runs arent doing anything new. They are doing it fairly well. They arent just writing a bunch of songs about going to the bathroom either."

:::ASKEW REVIEWS.com::: "...there are also a bunch of songs that are catchy and have great energy and are really impossible not to bop along with."

:::READ MAGAZINE.com::: "It's hard to fuck up pop-punk, but these guys do a great job at it."

:::SKRATCH MAGAZINE::: "all kinds of rough around the edges"
