RAT BOY shares ‘LEFT 4 DEAD’

Essex newcomer is fast-becoming a champion for all things bonkers.

RAT BOY shares ‘LEFT 4 DEAD’

The momentum behind Essex teenager RAT BOY is almost blinding, at this point. Today sees the release of his debut single ‘SIGN ON’, and in the space of just a couple of months he’s gone from niche concern to one of the most talked about fresh faces around.

‘LEFT 4 DEAD’ backs up the hype. Sample-tastic, scuzzy to the extreme, it’s a breakneck speed trip through your local neighbourhood, frog-leaping from cash machines to drag racing to hospital beds in the space of three blitzing minutes. Best of all, it was recorded live, all in one frenzied take at XFM’s studios.
