"The album is about growing up, meeting new people and coping with extreme change. A little snippet of our lives from the last year or so. We hope you like it. Thank you if you've supported us on our journey."

 

Run, Walk, in their final recording session, produced an album with Jason Sanderson (Rolo Tomassi, Brontide, Crocus, basically everyone good). 10 songs, and just a shade under 30 minutes, this is the bands catchiest, most intricate, layered, direct, emotional, poppy, heavy material. It will also be their last. Bass/Drums and so, so much more.....

Angular, noisy art rock is the order of the day on this split from similar minded bands run,WALK! and Sirs. run,WALK! attack your senses with the stabbing, arty 'Rainhouse' and 'Straight Lines'. Making them more intense and powerful than their American counterpart Sirs, who are more of an angular indie rock band. If you like your rock arty and loud as fuck then this split will be spinning on your decks for somet time. An impressive pairing. -RO

run,WALK! - 2010 PEEKAY

Band : run,WALK!

Album : PEEKAY
Release Year : 2010

Genre : Mathrock | Noise | Experimental

Tracklist :

01 Virus
02 Peekay
03 Throw Nothing At The Sea

There seems to be a surprising amount of incredible 2-pieces proving you can make as much noise as if there was double the amount of musicians working next to you. Run, Walk! is one of these duos.
Run, Walk! consists of Matthew Pickering-Copley on bass and vocals and Tom Clements on drums.
The 2 piece hail from Winchester and after exploding onto the live scenes, they were quickly snapped up by notorious hip hardcore and sound pelting label Holy Roar who also home Gallows, Rolo Tomassi, The Ghost of a thousand to name a few.

Their 3 track EP can be related to what you can experience live from the two.
Overall a 6minute journey of abrasive, hard-hitting, ferocious and intense noise beating from the duo. With strained vocals and tracks which exploit a hardcore side.

The EP opens up with track Virus- and sure enough those beats fused with the epic breakdowns are that like a virus, ruddy infectious.
But as that track raucously ensues into the title track Peekay, a wall of sound, carrying the tense vocals, riffs and the throbbing drums immediately hits you without warning. The bass throughout the track is simply trying to overcome a dirty fight with the feedback, (taco vs. grilled cheese sandwich style, prison rules?)
And then PEEKAY draws to a notable climax finishing with Throw Nothing At The Sea, with regular comparisons to that of the distinguished Lightning Bolt, this is the track which you can identify that influence. Its an intense sound frenzy.
Surround yourself in distortion, feedback, crunch and perpetual start stop progression.

Run, Walk! have previously released a 7 track EP titled “I hope this all works out so I can stop standing on even amounts of manholes in the street” which gained critical success shortly followed by the release of an instrumental 4 track EP. And now the release of PEEKAY. This band have managed to make each EP more different from the last, working on their strength as a band, their talent and a shit load of diverse tracks. -circuitsweet

run,WALK! - 2010 I Hope This All Works Out So I Can Stop Standing On Even Amounts Of Manholes In The Street

Band : run,WALK!

Album : I Hope This All Works Out So I Can Stop Standing On Even Amounts Of Manholes In The Street
Release Year : 2010

Genre : Mathrock | Noise | Experimental

Tracklist :

01 Back of My Mind
02 Prejections on the Wall

04 N.B.Y.

Pointlessly long title that really puts all the baggage out on the frontline by pinpointing that at least one of Run Walk has a little bit of OCD. Too much detail. What’s wrong with Self Titled? If they already had a Self Titled record, then I’m not accepting that as an excuse. Rancid had two, and there’s probably not a single band more worthy of breaking the rules than one featuring Tim Armstrong, who willingly sold his songs to shampoo adverts. Punx most certainly not dead.

Run Walk are born into the very, very large family of unwanted bastard children of the Lightning Bolt copyists, cocktailed with semi-conventional poppy math-rock. It swaggers in and out of inaudible chaos in the Lightning Bolt mould, into a much more clarity-soaked disjointed twiddle-rock, close to the Tera Melos and Shield Your Eyes pulse. Run Walk attempt to be off-kilter, but the angular stop starts sound increasingly trite, and their faux-unpredictability begins to be very unsurprising. Run Walk boast a vicious, affronting sound. The brash distorted bass is menacing and brutal, and each fragmented manoeuvre is razor sharp. I just find their toes getting dipped into the progressively trendy mathematical time signatures incredibly unconvincing. An extraordinarily high standard has been set within the boundaries of bands that are set on dicking about with time signatures, and falling short halfway is bound to sound pedestrian. Due to their ominous and ruthless sound despite their minimal set up, simplicity would be their strength, basing conventional structures around their disparaging and unforgiving sound. Yet, implausibly they insist on making this entire record as awkward as possible, and falling way, way short of their far superior tech-math-mess-rock peers. -Joe Callaghan
