Perth hardcore legends Ratking have just released their epic cover of ‘Come Out And Play’ by The Offspring.
The band have announced an upcoming show supporting Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes, as well as a bushfire fundraiser performance.
Returning from their first stateside trip in 2019, where they tore the roof off SXSW, Ratking are also preparing for their third EP release. Making it their mission to tour as much of the world as possible, the five-piece have thus far collected flags from Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Australia and the US, and are already planning to get back on the road before winter.
In a very short amount of time Ratking have added their own fingerprint to the ever-expanding universe of hardcore; blending elements of punk rock, metal and thrash in a way that is both familiar and unique.
From 2013’s ‘Wastelander’ EP, to their 2014 debut album ‘Commonwealth’, to 2018’s incendiary ‘SERF’ EP, each subsequent Ratking release has marked the ongoing evolution of the band as songwriters and performers.
New single ‘Come Out And Play’ is available for download on all major online stores.
