After sharing their easing cut ‘The Hopskotch Man’ last month, Leeds band Party Hardly turn up the heat with their latest single ‘Rats In The Kitchen’. An energetic and racing bblast of post-punk, the song drives with fiery guitar lines and thundering drums as a continued build-up throughout the tune creates explosive reaches. With some of the vocal bits reminiscent of The Fall’s Mark E. Smith, ‘Rats In The Kitchen’ finds Party Hardly totally in-sync, delivering one dynamic single.
