Reno Divorce are a punk rock n' roll band with gritty riffs, bittersweet melodies, pounding drums, chugging bass, and a reckless swagger that harkens back to when rock n' roll was dangerous. A high-energy live band to the core, Reno Divorce truly have to be experienced in person (preferably in a small, packed, sweaty club) to be appreciated properly.

Reviews:
"Blue Collar Rock & Roll at it's finest." - Poppunk.com
"Hell yeh, the explosive sonic fury of Reno Divorce brings out the devil in me and makes me wanna drink and fuck and get downright dirty and nasty! If I were dictator for just one day, this would be a mandatory disc to be played loudly in each and every home, business, institutional learning facility, penitentiary, and church across the nation... amen, motherfucker! " - Roger Moser, Jr., Razorcake Magazine
"KKKK! The guitars are raw and low-slung, the vocals are a perfect mix of whiskey-sour kisses and brattish pout and sneer. Yes it's more punk rock'n'roll, but this is the kind with dirt under its nails. Reno Divorce sound like they're classicists at heart, and most of these songs would be equally as effective stripped down to a lone voice and acoustic guitar. Add a story-telling lyrical style that is socially aware, seedy and poetic all at the same time, and you have an oddly-moving brand of punk rock that wears its cynical, discontented heart brazenly on its sleeve like a wrecked romantic ". -Paul Travers, Kerrang! Magazine
