Check Out Our Interview With Orangealert.net As We're The... Band of the Week: Bully in the Hallway

"So, what you're saying is that even though you are an almost-paralyzed, multiphobic personality who is in a constant state of panic, your wife did not leave you, you left her because she"... didn't like bully in the hallway?

-Dr. Leo Marvin-

"Born and raised in Chicago, BULLY IN THE HALLWAY have been quietly preparing their debut album and boisterously tearing through sets across the city with their unique blend of aggressive power-punk and mellow, ass-shaking grooves."

-The Empty Bottle-

From Columbia Chronicle
Simon on our album title and the reason behind it's selection... "We always have felt that we were overlooked, and being the second city pushed under by LA and New York. The album title aims at that, and we were like “Hey New York and LA, we do exist..." Read the rest of the interview here!


From Chicago Innerview
"...there’s no doubt that Bully In The Hallway belt out a solid slice of rock with some serious potential.

Bully in the Hallway is a band that deserves some recognition..."READ MORE!

From Chicago Acoustic Underground
"Bully in the Hallway describes themselves as a Rock/Punk/Psychedelic band. They are all that and a whole bunch more." Link to podcast here!

From Rival Fish
"Bully in the Hallway went on shortly after half past nine, and while the crowd was still trickling in once their aggressive punk-rock chords rung out there was a noticeable increase in the amount of street traffic that decided to stop in for some tunes. If you like high energy and some distortion with strong backbeats this band could be for you...Read More"
