EXCLUSIVE NEW DOWNLOAD: The Rakes - Bitchin' in The Kitchen
It’s been a while since music seemed wild, and The Rakes are the first to admit it’s hard out there for a post-punk/new-waver what with all the tweeting and nicotine patches. We’re apt to agree—how does anyone remain a badass these days? Us plebs don’t know how they manage to pull it off. Calling bullsh*t on the London music scene to run amok in Berlin in double breasted pea coats, smashing soundstages, and spewing off their thorny gang mentality seems to have figured into it. Keeping it fresh with bleach-spotted guitars and that patented blend of breezy hardcore could be the rest. Available as a UK import since March, The Rakes’ third LP Klang is coming to the digital masses on October 20th, courtesy of itunes.
Sounds like: Joy Division, The Libertines
