Band Information

R U N is a post-black metal project put together by Lochlan Watt (Colossus) and Mike Delandes of High Tension. Their initial release was a series of music clips released to YouTube, after which the tracks were made available as an EP. During 2021 a live band was put together featuring bassist Lewis Noke-Edwards (Colossus), former Clowns guitarist Will Robinson and Joel Taylor from Join the Amish. R U N was slated to make their debut at the 2021 Blacken Open Air festival, but it was cancelled by COVID restrictions. The band's first live shows were in early 2022 with Antagonist AD and also appeared at Dark Mofo. After this the band cancelled all upcoming commitments including the Blacken Open Air festival as Watt's brain cancer seemed to have returned; however, it was soon revealed that was not the case and R U N played shows in October with Frontierer. After these shows, R U N changed its line up with Watt and Noke-Edwards remaining; Noke-Edwards switched to guitar and Benn Gaylor, Aaron Parker Richards and Adrian Horsman all joined the band. The name was (slightly) changed to RUN.

During early 2024 the band toured with The Amity Affliction and the single Spring features vocals from Joel Birch.
