Brisbane rockers, **Runt** have released their second single for XMusic, **I Don’t Mind**.

***I Don’t Mind*** is about having a few to many and trying to find your way home all while not really knowing where you are.

I Don’t Mind, along with first single, [Forever](https://us.list-manage.com/SiAsS7JxuEx?e=c982cfcc7a&c2id=8df4eb0d792325807e8f2eb2abb2bd4e), are taken from Runt’s forthcoming self-titled, debut album. Due for release via XMusic on August 7.

In the bands own words* ‘”his isn’t just a tracklist; it’s a curated collection of stories, each built with its own pulse and purpose. We aren’t interested in being a tribute to the past or a carbon copy of the present. Instead, every song was crafted with a sole intent: to deliver a visceral, hard-hitting experience that demands the listener’s attention from the first chord to the final fade.*

*Layered with thoughtful melodies and unapologetic vocals, the album is lean, mean, and entirely devoid of filler. It’s the sound of a band that’s hungry, focused, and ready to be heard!”*

Pre orders for Runt are available now

Runt have quickly developed a reputation around Brisbane for their tight, no-nonsense live shows where the material is allowed to speak for itself; heavy, melodic and direct.

Drawing on the darker end of ‘90s alternative rock and grunge, Runt’s sound leans into the weight and atmosphere of bands like **Alice In Chains**, **Soundgarden **and **Stone Temple Pilots**, with a modern edge and a clear emphasis on strong songwriting rather than studio trickery.
