“Oakland’s Stay Out are carrying forward the tradition of East Bay punk. Their sound is fun and melodically hard-hitting, but so is their approach to promoting themselves. Last year contained several unexpected pop-ups: The band crashed Warped Tour’s Long Beach Block Party, covering blink-182’s “Dammit” on a megaphone. They took over a Denny’s in SoCal, packing it out alongside Clarion and Domino Effect. They set up a generator outside of Green Day’s Berkeley show, tearing through songs and giving away CDs. If East Bay culture is important to you, they’re a group worth keeping an eye on.” -AltPress
