"These dudes have to rule live, like seriously"

being from oklahoma and discovering these guys right after i got out of college was an awesome experience. I've gotten to know the members and these dudes are down to earth and fun to be around. as for their live shows, imagine the ultimate beer fest EVER!!! seriously, it's about mandatory that beer be flung and gunned during every show. I mean, i left one time soaking in PBR and Red Stripe. (the most popular beers at the conservatory where RCR often play...)

the songs are easy to learn and demand singing when seen live. don't miss them if they come by your home...

Got this last week, I agree with the review that it takes a few listen to distinguish the tracks from one another but its worth the time. it'll be interesting to see if this makes it into my best of 2011 list.

'The Dangers of Standing Still', the debut LP from Oklahoma's Red City Radio, is one of many impressive melodic punk releases in 2011. Containing passionately delivered, strong & sincere lyrics that are full of relatable catch-phrases, all 4 members contribute their predominantly raspy vocals as layered gang chants are everywhere. It's consistent & would be a hoot live, but with all 12 tracks tightly played at an upbeat pace, many songs bleed into the next, as the stock-standard production fails to make the hooks sufficiently distinctive. Recommended Tracks: I'm Well You're Poison, Spinning In Circles..., This Day's Seen Better Bars & 50th and Western.



So close to a 4 & it would have been had they included the 2 tracks they foolishly relegated to B-Sides for the 'Spinning In Circles...' EP.

Don't know how this didn't make any best of lists, I love it. 50th and Western is my song of the year. Amazing.
