Red City Radio

Red City Radio - "Where We're Going We Don't Need Roads" from Punknews.org on Vimeo.



We are a truly democratic band, devoid of ego, unshackled to trend or style with no chief songwriter, no dominant personality, no unilateral decisions.

Only solidarity and truth.

Alternative Press said:



"These five songs show some serious promise." 4 out of 5 stars



Sloane Daley of Punknews.org said:



".in terms of of composition they beat just about any band playing this style of music today. Every song on here is a winner -- completely authentic, earnest and catchy."



Punknews.org said:



"This is exactly the type of gravelly, upbeat punk rock with a market already cornered by No Idea and Kiss of Death. Some bands just do it better than others, though, and I guess Red City Radio are doing it so well that a bigger label noticed and stepped up to the plate for them."



"This EP . . . is definitely one of the better examples of it in recent memory."



"The general carmraderie and energy here gives Latterman, New Bruises and Hot Water Music fans in general new reasons to continue breathing."

. . . No drama. No inconsequential bullshit. Everything’s real, raw and relatable; nothing’s held back, from the screams, to the shouts, to the chords, to the cymbal crashes. You don’t just hear the music, you feel the music because well, you are the embodiment of the music. We all are. And unless you’re without a pulse, it’s impossible not to feel it.



Possessing a contagious working class fury, utilizing soaring melodies and gruff, passionate vocals, Red City Radio are destined to become one of the heavy hitters in the scene before the last drop of whiskey hits the floor. The Oklahoma City, Oklahoma quartet recently inked a deal with Eyeball Records and released an EP entitled To the Sons and Daughters of Woody Guthrie.



Don’t scoff just yet: While the band’s sound and aesthetic may fall into the arguably over-saturated, semantics-heavy category of ‘orgcore’ and/or ‘gruff pop-punk’, the guys in Red City Radio set themselves apart from the pack with all four members of the band seamlessly contributing sizable vocal parts to complement those aforementioned soaring melodies and rounding it out with impressively tight-but-not-flashy musicianship. Many bands of this ilk sound sloshy (and sometimes, endearingly so) but that’s never the case with Red City Radio. Every moment sounds calculated, but never cold. Do yourself a favor and head over to the band’s myspace page to stream three songs — try not to get goosebumps once “We are The Sons of Woody Guthrie” kicks in.

“Springsteen shot full of steroids … fearless, cranked-to-eleven blue-collar rock …”



The Oklahoma City Gazette:



. . . "loud, rowdy punk-rock songs steeped in a real Americana …”
