Rat Boy‘s new track Don’t Hesitate is online after its premiere on Annie Mac’s Radio 1 show.
It’s the latest from Jordan Cardy’s Internationally Unknown album, which is out on the 25th of this month after a collaboration with Tim Armstrong at Shiprec Studios in Los Angeles, a partnership whose seeds were sown by Cardy’s fondeness for The Transplants.
“I wanted to do this completely differently because ‘SCUM’ took so long, and I was learning the whole way through making it,” he’s said.
“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.”
Rat Boy will start a of tour North America with with The Interrupters at the end of next month, and on May 5th will be in Glasgow to headline the city’s Stag & Dagger event.
