Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes - Sticky (Vinyl)

Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes - Sticky (Vinyl) Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes were one of the UK’s best live acts when the world pressed the pause button. At first, they went into the studio to bottle that intensity, off the back of their number four album in 2019's End of Suffering. But during the uncertainty of the past year, where they snatched pockets of time to write together when they could, Frank Carter and Dean Richardson ended up with something far gnarlier, for their fourth record, channelling all their frustrations and the grittiness of the city into 10 eviscerating tracks. Let's get one thing straight, though: "It's not a lockdown record," says Carter, "it's a freedom record." 'Sticky' clearly marks the next phase for the band and was produced by Richardson. It solidifies the pair as one of the most exciting partnerships in punk-rock and Carter – since his early days in hardcore punk band Gallows and then as Pure Love – as a vital voice in UK music, rallying against injustice, the patriarchy, right-wing politics and toxic masculinity.
