THE RUNAWAYS-Queens off Noise (Mercury)::Listen, all you sexists and ageists, STOP PICKING ON THE RUNAWAYS! When’s the last time you paused and reflected that these gals are only 17 and 18, i.e., at least 2 or 3 (sometimes 15 or 20) years younger than most of the male “punk” competition to which they keep getting unfavorably compared? At that rate, they’ve got more raw growth potential than already-peaking whizzes like the Ramones.
