Although a young band, We Run‘s first show at Glasslands in early September attracted enough attention to land them an official CMJ rethinkpopmusic.com showcase at Spike Hill on October 19th. Their sound, influenced by 1970’s punk (Buzzcocks), indie-dance rock (early Arctic Monkeys), and 1990’s grunge (Nirvana), is frantic and distorted in each one of its component – a far cry from the electro-pop sound that Brooklyn is currently known for. We Run has just released two tracks online, available for download at their website. They are about to enter the studio to record their debut EP.
