Rat Boy playing live for This Feeling TV (Alberto Pezzali for Live4ever)
The opening track of Rat Boy‘s new album with Tim Armstrong has been unveiled.
Chip On My Shoulder opens a window on Internationally Unknown and its recording sessions at Shiprec Studios in Los Angeles. “I wanted to do this completely differently because ‘SCUM’ took so long, and I was learning the whole way through making it,” Jordan Cardy explained.
“I wanted to make something more personal and raw, which reflected me more. I was trying to find that sweet spot between hip-hop and punk, and Tim really understands that stuff. I’ve never really spoken to anyone else who love hip-hop and punk like I do.”
He’ll tour the UK in November, including three shows in London, before the album’s release on January 25th next year.
