Altered Zones

Pinglewood says:
Runners, as you might expect, are an athletic band. They combine loose-limbed, whipcrack drumming, whacked-out Korg melodies, and a keen ear for the absurd. They are a supergroup of sorts, comprising members of Leeds' bands like Chops and Cowtown. "Stay Frosty" is their first recorded song. Its title is Marine Corps slang, a request for icy vigilance, but it sounds like peak-time house party krautrock: Harmonia after a two litre bottle of cheap cider. Be sure to check out their Monthly Marathon mixtapes which feature tracks from podium prospects like Actress, Mahjongg, and James Ferraro.
