RECENT RANTS & REVIEWS:

"One amazing band! Every single they put out is GREAT."
-- ONE KIND RADIO


"This is a band you can call on and know they will be ready to rock"
-- LOVE SHACK BABY


"Jonny Rumble rollick through Courtney's basement looking for the perfect pop song, and I think they have a solid gold hit on there hands! This song is good fun without the smell of a damp basement!"
-- WEXT Exit 97.7


"I'm quite addicted to Courtney's Basement. I have to admit. Jonny Rumble was always melodic, always good, but these songs are pop gems."
-- THE VINYL VILLAIN


"This seasoned power-pop band, that has had three previous full-length releases, nicely blends The Strokes quickness with some classic Ramones punk, yet manage to stand alone with a unique hook-happy sound that doesn't come around too often."
-- UR CHICAGO


"They combine the ferocious energy and unshakable grooves of Motown's best with Chicago's long-standing love of power-pop; think MC5 jamming with Cheap Trick, but at Ramones tempos. If that isn't a sign of life, I don't know what is."
-- Jim DeRogatis, CHICAGO SUN-TIMES


"There’s a melancholy that echoes on tracks like “First Pick” and “Saved” which balances out the eyebrow-raising meld of musical anger and vocal assault; Rumble’s diversity in composition sets them apart today from the other distortion-loving alternative punk-revivalists that saw their heyday in the mid-nineties."
-- Hilary Hughes, ChicksWithGunsMag.com


"The band steps up their game and works hard to craft inventive new phrases that still evoke years past, but this time there's a distinctive stamp of the band's own personality on every riff. Jonny Rumble's time to rise above the scene's din just might have arrived."
-- Chicagoist


"Let them beat you senseless with their music, or they'll beat you senseless with their music. Come on kiddies everyone is doing it so why not you? "Rock N' Roll is in our heads now."
-- Wassup Magazine


"Rock ‘n’ roll hasn’t kicked the bucket yet, but according to Jonny Rumble's new record Almost Dead, it’s definitely seen better damn days."
-- Illinois Entertainer


"Almost Dead," is written as a kind of death knell for the rock 'n' roll that members love, and whether you agree or not, they're going to play it loud.
-- Staten Island Live


"What most impresses, is that there is real substance to all of Jonny Rumble's material. Loud, direct, and angry, their music is filled with intelligent commentary."
-- WLUW 88.7


"Lyrically, singer Brian Webb offers up some knowledgeable yet twisted sentiments, but also shows a diverse vocal range. Jonny Rumble is a reminder of the rebellious and enticing "set shit on fire" school that has been fueling the rock 'n' roll flame since the '50s."
-- REAX Music Magazine


"In terms of style, there is one word that best describes the music of Jonny Rumble: Loud, thrash, angry, and straight to the point!"
-- I Rock Radio


"The disc-opening title track is the best reason to give “Almost Dead” a spin. It’s honest — “There is a man named Neil Young / And he said that ‘rock would never die’ / He was wrong / It’s almost dead” — and funny (taking shots at both Nickelback and the Dave Matthews Band) and may well be the finest song Jonny Rumble have recorded."

   About Jonny Rumble

LIVE SHOT

“CoxRoad,” Jonny Rumble’s second single from their upcoming EP, features a pair of intoxicating songs that beautifully evolve the signature brawny pop hooks of the Chicago band’s previous teaser single, “Courtney’s Basement.” “CoxRoad,” and its companion, “Opportunities,” take the bright, densely packed melodies and happy-go-lucky rhythms propelling the first single and deepen the mood with leaner grooves and an opened-up sound. A palpable wistful melancholy helps create hypnotic spaces, bookended by tightly coiled harmonies and rollicking, muscular dynamics.

The two offerings display Jonny Rumble’s layered melodicism and concentrated emotional heft, cultivated recently within a group that has previously delved into punk, garage and British-Invasion like sounds with great aplomb. Both in terms of introspective lyrical content and a more post-punk/power-pop musical approach, Jonny Rumble’s instinct for songcraft is more acutely wielded and deftly arranged than ever.

Singer Brian Webb explains: “On our last full-length, Almost Dead, we were coming up with the basic song structures alone in our rooms and only the polishing was a group effort.” Now Webb, along with guitarist Patrick O’Connor, bassist Jeremy Pryor and drummer Seth Thomas, are “concocting songs together from scratch, brewing the elements until each song’s potential becomes nuanced and fully-realized.”

“We’ll be writing and recording for the rest of the summer and have a finished vinyl EP in the fall that will feature a combination of the songs from these singles with still-unreleased material,” says Pryor. “Also, giant explosions.”

In the meantime, “CoxRoad” and “Opportunities” will each be available for free download as of July 14th at www.jonnyrumble.com, along with CD versions available only at the band’s live sets.

Hey fellas. The Mutts are playing Subterranean on July 29th.

You now have the information. Free will dictates that you may do with it as you please. But I hope you will choose to come to the show. Or maybe fate will drop you at Sub-T on July 29th... I don't mean to make this into something bigger than it is. But whether or not we chose to do what we do, it's gonna be a fun show.
