Rugrat release energising punk-rock single ‘Rarity Jacket’

Guildford punk-rock quartet Rugrat have unveiled their latest energising single ‘Rarity Jacket’.

Following up on debut EP ‘Public Humiliation’, the band have a very small presence online but are armed with mighty punk songs with a purpose.

‘Rarity Jacket’ is a thumping rock anthem with gritty riffs and hoarse vocals. The band’s trademark jaggy post-punk and infectious riffs take influence from the likes of Yard Act, False Heads and Fontaines DC.

The track’s foot-stomping beat and deep vocals with a hoarse edge adds to Rugrat’s mysterious ethos who were formerly performing under the name Liquorice.

To coincide with the release, Rugrat have dropped a music video which sees the four-piece commandeer a charity shop and a mannequin as they take it along for a ride through their hometown with a unique jacket.

Watch Rugrat perform live at our 10th anniversary show this Saturday (October 12th) at The Finsbury Pub, London. Get more details here.

It’s one of Bisgroves’ most mature pieces of work yet. The twinkling sounds, vocal layers and soaring atmospherics are stylistically embedded like you’re playing it on a vintage record player. Incorporating a lick of modern R&B from Frank Ocean and The Weeknd, ‘Strangers’ is a tasteful play on love, heartbreak, pity and pain all
