R U N For You

R U N is a new Australian project built on several collective decades spent toiling through success and failure within the Australian heavy music underground. A duo compromised of vocalist Lochlan Watt (former live member of Thy Art Is Murder/Psycroptic) and guitarist Mike Deslandes (YLVA/High Tension), they pull together extreme metal fury, hardcore accessibility, and the heady contemplation of post-rock into a sound that you've likely heard in various places several times before - just never quite blended together like this.

Signalling the project's foreboding yet bittersweet nature, R U N has today unveiled their debut single 'For You'.

Exploding out of speakers through a rush of blast beats, 'For You' is an urgent purge of pain, expelled via a blacked death uproar and executed with deep intent. Co-written by the pair and recorded and engineered by Deslandes - whose vast and varied producer credits include Pagan, The Nation Blue and Iron Mind - in spite of the title, 'For You' is written for oneself, as Watt explains:

"There are several meanings tied up in 'For You' - it is a song born from extreme emotional pain, but it is also a song that looks forward while standing firm. It wasn't written for others... it was written for the self, and where you take it from there is up to you."
