Bristol-based pop-punk trio 'The Remnants' employ buzzing guitars, busy basslines and pushy drumbeats to create hooky as hell tunes, with lyrics that offer no hidden agendas, just witty observations and disorientated half-truths.



The Remnants - because three chords are cool.



“Infectious ‘90’s lovin pop punk from the South West, this trio have returned from their 2007 EP with two tracks that fans of Screeching Weasel and classic Green Day will love. This is how pop punk should sound.” Big Cheese Magazine

“I don't need to write a long review for this one - this is a bloody blinder. If you like really poppy pop-punk with a mid 90s So-Cal vibe to it, then you will love The Remnants. They remind me of early Green Day in tone, mixed with The Queers and all that kind of good stuff. The vocal melodies are brilliant throughout and the mix is perfect - the vocals are used as the major instrument with everything bouncing off them to perfection. All I need to say is that this little release should be in your collection - and it wipes the floor with so many third-rate US pop-punk bands peddling their wares right now. Buy it.” Punktastic

"Bristol-based trio The Remnants return with the release of their latest single 'Circles'. It’s a short, buzzing slice of infectious punk-rock, packing one hell of a chorus into its tightly-knit framework, and though it won't turn many heads nor see the band walk out from the crowd anytime soon, the presence of the equally catchy B-side 'Talk About You' may just see the band given a few minutes to shine." rockmidgets.com

"The Remnants provide upbeat, fast pop-punk with 'Circles'. In just a minute and half, the trio manage to strucure and craft a neat number, that is instantly enjoyable. Whereas b-side 'Talk About You' speeds through with its punk rock base and a slight hint if British tounge. Add to this a tight band performance and impressive production and The Remnants, could be one to look out for in the future. 4/5" Alter the Press

“Starting off the night were Bristol’s own Pop Punkers, The Remnants, or as I like to call them, The Green Idols. Kicking off their set with live favourite “Square One” The Remnants proceed to fit in as many songs as they can in to a half hour slot, making the most of the space they were given and working the crowd in to a small frenzy. I can definitely see these nerds becoming a force to be reckoned with in the near future.” Style 43

“Inspired by the youthful ‘90’s pop punk sound of Green Day and The Descendents and featuring former members of 4ft Fingers, Grebo and AKO, this South West three-piece are a perky bunch and you’ll be humming their new single ‘Circles’ wherever you go.” Big Cheese Magazine
