Paul Barr from Reading
called the album "a great follow up" to their debut saying "Here
are new songs with added stylistic variations and instrumental colour but
retaining that familiar Teskey Brothers sound" believing producer Paul
Butler "has helped push the band to new heights".
Dan Condon from Double J said "All the
songs here are solid, there's nothing offensive and there's nothing ground
breaking. The Teskeys know where their strengths lie, they know what they like,
and they stick to it.
Zoë Radas from Stack Magazine said "Its
sweet '60s syncopation, dreamy rock 'n' roll, romantic Van Morrison-esque
rhythm and blues, and tender neo-soul compositions elevate the boys' former
folk leanings into absolutely gorgeous new territory." adding "It's
full of stand-outs".
Josh Hinton from Culture Fly said "Run
Home Slow isn't fresh and it isn't hip, but who needs to be those
things when you can be timeless?" adding "Class never goes out of
style, and on this evidence, the Teskeys have plenty of both to spare.
Harriet Wolstenholme from Go London said
"The Melbourne outfit find home in a sound that fuses the laid-back spirit
of an Aussie rock band and the soul music of a bygone era. The result is a
wide-ranging album destined to soundtrack every hipster romance."
concluding with "For a blues album it leaves you feeling far from it".
Zach Edwards from Forte Magazine said "Run
Home Slow is a beautiful, well-crafted record full of character,
space, simplicity, heart, and soul; The Teskey Brothers once again blurring the
boundaries of time and genre in the clearest, most enjoyable way
possible."

People
they can be so unkind
If
they’re not happy
If
they can’t speak their mind
But
unwind the needle just to find
One
more line, one more line
People
they got something to say
They
can be carried or be carried away
But
it takes bricks and mortar
To
speak your mind
So
keep putting ‘em down, put ‘em down
That bird had song to sing
Something
to say
Is
it still here?
Or has it flow away?
This morning it had something to say
Is it still here?
Or has it flown away?
It reminds of a time where my memories fade
Thoughts ain't sharp unless they're laid
But if I can't remember
Will I feel it again?
All I need's a oiece of paper and pen
But you can take a photograph
Or can you just be there?
Do you need to remember?
Or can you just be there?
If I kept my promise, would we still be friends?
If I remembered would I feel it again?
