Here Come the Runts

AWOLNATION

A pivot toward organic grit and garage-rock energy. Swapping digital polish for overdriven guitars and live-room drums while keeping the anthemic hooks intact.

It's like if a 70s rock band got a shot of adrenaline and a modern alternative attitude.

A gritty, high-energy celebration of analog imperfection and underdog spirit.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The sudden shift from the acoustic strumming of Handyman into its soaring, wide-open chorus
The gritty, blues-inflected guitar riff that anchors the slow-burn tension of Seven Sticks of Dynamite
The frantic, almost punk-rock pace of the title track that sets a high-energy bar for the rest of the record
