This four track EP was released as part of RSD Black Friday in 2021. All the tunes are on Side 1 and Side 2 is a dreaded etched abomination. I’m just saying that some live tunes would have been great, thanks.
Mountain has Frank Bello from Anthrax guesting, and what a killer groovy beast it is. It’s an awesome chunk of modern, heavy rock n’ roll. Kiss It Goodbye starts like a heavy monster has just riffed in your ears. This one has a guest spot from Howard Jones. These guys know how to groove! What a beast of a song!
Everyone Dies features Styx Zadinia from everyone’s favourite joke, Steel Panther. It’s one big power ballad. It all comes to an end so quickly with the title track Rat Child which has a vibe and groove from way back, with a heavy dose of today.
Great band, and Brandon Yeagley is an amazing vocalist/frontman.
9/10 from The Grooveman.
