Robot A. Hull
CREEM Magazine, 1976

There are few things more quintessentially rock ‘n’ roll than five teenagers picking up instruments, and making an unholy racket. From the beginning, The Runaways captured the attention of CREEM, with their Queens of Noise rallying cry and ahead-of-their-years charisma. Why do we love The Runaways? We can’t put it much better than Robot A. Hull did in his 1976 original review of the record: Those off-key, out-of-tune, primitive screams and hyena gyrations still remain the purest form for expressing teenage desire and arrogance (from the Shadows of Knight to the MC5). The Runaways exist still in that tradition, but with a difference: they're younger, snottier, wilder, and more depraved, PLUS they're GIRLS.
