With equal parts Orange County punk, honky tonk country, and rockabilly sensibilities, Reno Divorce strikes a unique chord of their own in a diluted genre of what passes as "Punk rock'n'roll". Throw in well-crafted and deftly executed songs that straddle the line between Smithereens and and Social Distortion, and you've got a band that truly stands out amongst the herd. Oh, and there's one more thingthis aint the boys' first rodeo.they've played with almost all their punk hereos (ALL, Social D, TSOL, Adolescents, Agent Orange, Shattered Faith, X, The Blasters, Motorhead), and shared a tour bus with more contemporary heavy hitters, ala U.S. Bombs, The Bones, and Street Dogs. They've worked with the cream of the crop behind the scenes, as well. Their last record, "Tears Before Breakfast" was produced by Jason Livermore at the world famous Blasting Room and the support tours for that album were handled by M.A.D. Booking in Europe, where among other great festivals, they graced the Saturday Night Fever Stage at With FUll Force. Always captivating live, and wrought with more hooks than your uncle Bob's tackle box, Reno Divorce has carved out a reputation as the real nitty gritty, a true "musician's band" that pushes the envelope with every release, without sounding contrived or formulated. Brent Loveday's adept songwriting and clever storytelling are brought to life by the bands expert musicianship. With Brent Loveday on lead guitar and vocals, Tim Jadowski on bass, Tye Battistella on Rhythm guitar, and Ruben Patino on drums the band fires on all cylinders. backed by a band that fires on all cylinders. Reno Divorce has earned honors in Kerrang, Metal Hammer, Loud Fast Rules, and (more importantly to the band) the respect of their peers.

Reviews:



"Blue Collar Rock & Roll at it's finest." - Poppunk.com



"Hell yeh, the explosive sonic fury of Reno Divorce brings out the devil in me and makes me wanna drink and fuck and get downright dirty and nasty! If I were dictator for just one day, this would be a mandatory disc to be played loudly in each and every home, business, institutional learning facility, penitentiary, and church across the nation. amen, motherfucker! " - Roger Moser, Jr., Razorcake Magazine



"KKKK! The guitars are raw and low-slung, the vocals are a perfect mix of whiskey-sour kisses and brattish pout and sneer. Yes it's more punk rock'n'roll, but this is the kind with dirt under its nails. Reno Divorce sound like they're classicists at heart, and most of these songs would be equally as effective stripped down to a lone voice and acoustic guitar. Add a story-telling lyrical style that is socially aware, seedy and poetic all at the same time, and you have an oddly-moving brand of punk rock that wears its cynical, discontented heart brazenly on its sleeve like a wrecked romantic ". -Paul Travers, Kerrang! Magazine
