Album Notes

VOTED BEST BAND and BEST HARD ROCK ALBUM OF THE YEAR from the Washington DC area in 2008 by the Washington Area Music Awards!! Thanks for your votes.


Call it prog rock. Call it hard rock. Call it metal. Call it mathcore. It’s what Run Silent Run Deep call home. Comparisons to Fugazi, Coheed and Helmet are common place. With an amalgam of delicate melody, time changes and brutal riffs RSRD create music that die hard fans love and others love to hate.

"With their level of proficiency, boasting excellent players all around and playing like they were listening to each other….with a set made up of long, epic compositions with lots of atmospheric, arpeggiated movements, but don't think it ends there. They like to bring the hammers down, too, and none of their 10-minute crowd-pleasers were complete without at least one Sabbath-inspired riff-fest.

 -Greg Ceton / Washington City Paper "


"ROCK'S CHILDREN: Run Silent Run Deep is among the many bands under the influence of the rock antiheroes Fugazi and Slint: these slightly moody, slightly angry lads turn down Fugazi's noise-rage and update Slint's smart song structure."

 -The New York Times


Since playing their first show in August of 2003 RSRD have played over 100 shows making clubs such as (NYC): the Mercury Lounge, Knitting Factory, CBGBs (Philly): North Star Bar, The Khyber (DC): Nation, Black Cat, Iota (Richmond):Alley Katz, Nanci Raygun and colleges U of Maryland, George Washington and American part of their route.
