“Sooner or later, Rat Boy will break through big time”, I wrote in April last year, four months before he released his debut album Scum. The album spawned six singles, and although Turn Around M8 would have made a great seventh, he already moved on.

Last week Rat Boy’s new EP Civil Disorder came out. A collection of seven new tracks, of which I like the hard-hitting Public Identity best. Sure to be a future fan favourite!
