It’s a New Year and everything’s fucked… again. From riots to the cost-of-living and endless misinformation, it’s hard to shake the RAT BOY gang’s feeling that “they ain’t no future for you nor me.” And when you’re feeling alienated, what is there to do other than crank up the amps and channel that anger into a wall-of-noise? That’s exactly what RAT BOY have done with their brand-new single ‘PUBLIC WARNING’. Listen HERE.
The anarchic picture that vocalist Jordan Cardy paints in ‘PUBLIC WARNING’ is just as relevant at home in Essex, right across the UK, and indeed across many countries around the globe. It’s a melodic punk-pop petrol bomb which translates feeling bad about the world around you into two-and-half-minutes of escapism that can’t be held back by anything.
Jordan says, “‘PUBLIC WARNING’ is an observation of what I’m seeing at the moment, I feel confused like a lot of people. I’m not going to claim to know lots about politics but something isn’t right. Everything is fucked.”
The track was written by Jordan, who produced the track with drummer Noah Booth.
Last year saw RAT BOY - completed by Liam Haygarth (bass), Harry Todd (guitar) - return in charismatically explosive fashion. Mixing up ska, punk, hip-hop and hardcore, their third album ‘SUBURBIA CALLING’ feels as if the Hellcat Records’ sound had been lifted from Sunset Boulevard and dropped next to the bookies, charity shops and mobile phone repair stores on Chelmsford High Street. They also stormed back into the live arena, packing sweaty shows with new material as well as fan favourites from the UK Top 15 debut ‘SCUM’ and the Tim Armstrong-assisted ‘INTERNATIONALLY UNKNOWN’.
